Since the crypto-friendly Trump administration took over, applications for altcoin ETFs have surged. Over 130 are right now waiting for SEC approval. The government shutdown has appeared to have delayed the approval of a variety of altcoin ETFs, however, there might be some hope.

Paul Barron is the man. Dude was shilling Solana in the bear market lows 2022/2023. This guy Fkin knows what’s going on. So grateful for an influencer I can trust. 😮

Paul, would you cover some monad please? If anything going to come out of EVM and compete with Solana it might be something like this. But personally I think Solana will win everything….
Let’s start saying “ALL”coins instead of “Alt”
Why woukd we want the fed involved 😂😂😂 they need to understand they aren't needed and the main reason why everything is unaffordable !
The concern I have is that while the data suggests a parabolic move is imminent, I agree, similar signals have been flashing for nearly a year. We could be in a scenario where the indicators keep pointing to an impending blow-off top, yet it never materialises and instead, the market just slowly melts down. Remember last cycle? Everyone was convinced we’d hit a minimum of 100k, and we didn’t even come close. But all the data said we should. Remmber that? Now people are saying 130k is inevitable. Really? At some point, we have to acknowledge that even the most compelling data is still just a better possibility than a wild guess.
It annoys me as an XRP holder how we have missed a bull run, been held back, had to fight in court and wait in line for possible ETF’s while everyone else benefits from our struggles and eats our lunch.
We deserve to have a priority for ETF’s for jumping through so many hoops, we should be able to benefit first to capture more business rather than being diluted amongst the others or in buckets🫡🇬🇧
