He explores Bitcoin's initial response as a risk asset rather than a safe haven amid geopolitical tensions, and analyzes whether that dynamic might shift in the coming days. Plus, the SEC's Paul Atkins labels self-custody a foundational American digital right, Stripe deepens its crypto commitment with a new acquisition, and stablecoins continue their march toward mainstream adoption as the Clarity and Genius Acts progress through Congress.
