Porter said the core dispute is no longer just about whether Congress wants to regulate crypto, but on whose terms. President Donald Trump has publicly backed keeping the GENIUS Act intact, Porter noted, which he described as a positive sign for crypto firms.

In a recent appearance on the Coin Stories podcast, Arthur Hayes made it clear that if he had $1 to invest today, it wouldn’t be going into BTC.

The bill targets prediction markets tied to terrorism, assassination, war, or anyone’s untimely demise on platforms registered with the CFTC. Kalshi, Polymarket, and their crypto cousins? You’re on notice.
AI assistants are expected to handle a massive increase in payments. Predictions suggest they could process one million times more transactions than humans currently do, potentially leading to a yearly cryptocurrency transaction volume of $400 trillion, according to some experts.

But ah! With the revelation of NVIDIA’s February earnings, a delightful array of Artificial Intelligence (AI) coins, such as TAO, NEAR, ICP, and their equally charming companions RENDER, FET, and Virtuals, have danced and twirled with a most exciting volatility. One would do well to watch with keen eyes how these coins perform in the coming weeks, for they are as unpredictable as the winds of fate itself.
