Just before the stage was curtained for the arrival of Paul Atkins, the new ringmaster at the SEC circus, the departing maestro, Gary Gensler, cast a grim prophecy upon the cryptic world of crypto. Oh, what melodrama!
In a tête-à-tête with CNBC, Gensler, with the gravity of a man who’s seen too many illusions crumble, confessed his gloomy verdict. Bitcoin, he mused, might endure as “digital gold,” a curious notion indeed, while the sprawling legion of crypto tokens stood teetering on the edge of oblivion, devoid of “intrinsic value” – a phrase that echoes like a death knell in those glittering halls.
Picture this: over 10,000 cryptocurrencies, a veritable Babel tower of coins, tokens, and dreams, yet most of these phantasms have no firm ground beneath their feet. Like carnival barkers shouting promises, they ride the wild horses of hype and speculation—surefootedness, however, was not on the guest list.
“Sentiment, sentiment, sentiment!” declared Gensler, almost mournfully. “While Bitcoin may bask in the global spotlight it has somehow earned, the other 10 to 15 thousand hopefuls are but ghosts without flesh, lacking any fundamental substance.”
One can almost see him shaking his head at the madness—a cryptonian armada sailing without anchors, adrift in the stormy seas of investor emotion.
And so, as pressures mount like the ominous clouds before a dreadful storm, the SEC now passes its sceptre to Paul Atkins. The future? Ah, a tangled riddle wrapped in mystery, set to be unraveled by a man standing amidst a bazaar of tokens that quite possibly exist only as figments of overheated imaginations.
Beware, dear investors, lest you find yourselves clutching at smoke and mirrors, for history is an unforgiving tutor, and in the theater of speculation, most acts end with a dismal curtain call. 🤡💸
