🚀 U.S. crypto policy shifted in two directions at once. FinCEN withdrew proposed rules that would have added recordkeeping, identity verification and reporting requirements for certain transfers involving unhosted wallets, and separately dropped a proposed special measure targeting crypto mixing. At the same time, the CFTC opened a 60-day consultation on a federal framework for leveraged or margined retail crypto transactions, including purpose-built “crypto asset market” registration, anti-manipulation controls and proof-of-reserves standards. The changes are directly relevant to liquid networks such as $BTC, $ETH and $SOL, but they do not create comprehensive federal oversight for ordinary spot trading; Congress would still need to close that gap. #TrendingTopic #BTC #HotTrends #solana #altcoins
