Harvard analysis of the Terra-Luna crash proved that wealthy, sophisticated investors ran first, leaving retail investors with the deepest losses. 🏃
Crypto doesn’t democratize finance—it lets elites manipulate prices from behind the scenes.

Popularity isn’t proof of a sound investment. When influencers hype up speculative tokens, everyday investors get burned while insiders cash out.

Crypto shifts counterparty risk directly onto consumers. 💸
When platforms fail or use customer funds for risky ventures, investors are left as unwitting, unsecured creditors.
Don’t mistake marketing for safety:

New York is ready for a change, and it’s coming.
For too long, New York families have been asked to pay more and settle for less: higher taxes, higher bills, and neighborhoods that don’t feel as safe as they used to. Bruce Blakeman is running to change that.
Lower taxes. Safer streets. A New York that families can afford to stay in and build a future in. Independent voters are already breaking his way, and the momentum is real.
On November 3, vote Bruce Blakeman for Governor. The change is coming.

“Mamdani is one of the most popular politicians on planet earth right now,” said GOP operative Chapin Fay — “Everything that comes out of his mouth I stand against, but he’s good looking, he knows how to operate the media.
You need a good villain to run against in politics, and he’s just not a good villain.”
Trump’s long-term bromance with NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani just wrecked Republicans’ midterm plan.
GOP candidates spent months tying opponents to the 34-year-old democratic socialist, his anti-Israel views, and the leftward tilt of the Democratic Party. Then the president stood beside him at Gracie Mansion, said Mamdani has “great potential,” and announced he’s rooting for his success.
Those plaudits landed at the worst possible moment for a party fighting to hold Congress.
“You need a good villain to run against in politics, and he’s just not a good villain,” one GOP operative said.
The attacks still work better against a nameless socialist tide than against the actual mayor Trump keeps praising.

Blaming banks ignores public reality: 68% of current crypto owners agree that stronger regulation is necessary. The bill’s focus on loophole favoring insiders while ignoring basic consumer guardrails is why Congress walked away.
🇺🇸BREAKING: White House blames big banks for killing the CLARITY Act over fears stablecoins would drain their deposits.
White House crypto adviser Patrick Witt says opposition to the bill was "a wildfire that was started by larger banks that ultimately spread to community banks."
He says Trump was willing to divest his crypto or place it in a blind trust, calling it the most restrictive ethics provision "that has ever been agreed to by any president."
Witt called the attacks on Trump "somewhat ironic," given that "a lot of senators on banking committees" actively trade stocks in the financial companies they regulate.
