⚯ Michel de Cryptadamus ⚯Good article in The Prospect about the coming STABLE and GENIUS acts, which will give an implicit bail out guarantee to crypto money laundering firms - sorry, i mean "stablecoins" - like <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Tether" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Tether</a> and <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Circle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Circle</a> (<a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Coinbase" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Coinbase</a>).
