The Wolf Of All Streets

In this eye-opening episode, we sit down w/ George Tung w/ CryptosRUs to dive deep into why the traditional Bitcoin four-year cycle is breaking down, with geopolitical forces and Trump’s policy moves now driving crypto’s fate instead of just price action. Discover how ETFs, macro chaos, and leverage liquidations are reshaping markets, why gold and silver surged unexpectedly in 2025, and how serious players are pivoting to big-cap cryptos like Bitcoin and Ethereum amid retail uncertainty.

In this Crypto Town Hall, the crew dives into crypto's current flatline, Bitcoin and majors stuck while gold nears $5K and silver tops $100, with AI and commodities stealing the spotlight. They unpack flawed tokenomics from the early days (non-dilutive cash grabs with no real value flow), the need to purge worthless projects, and how institutional buyers like ETFs and MicroStrategy are quietly holding the line against long-term holder dumps. Plus, optimism around next week's SEC-CFTC coordination potentially fixing token economics, frustration with taxes killing real-world use, and why precious metals strength could set Bitcoin up for a big rebound."

Bitcoin is increasingly being shaped not just by markets, but by policy, as regulators around the world split into six distinct regulatory paths that could dramatically alter adoption, capital flows, and innovation. From Washington’s stalled legislation and shifting SEC–CFTC dynamics to global divergence between enforcement-heavy regimes and innovation-friendly frameworks, today’s stories highlight a growing reality: regulatory clarity is becoming a competitive advantage.

In this episode of Crypto Town Hall, hosts and guests vent frustration over the crypto market's prolonged stagnation, low volatility, extreme fear sentiment, shrinking altcoins, and repetitive headlines dominated by Trump, political gridlock, and regulatory uncertainty. They dissect the stalled Clarity Act and related bills, criticizing banking-lobby influence, ethics clause deadlocks, yield restrictions on stablecoins, and clauses that hinder tokenization and innovation. The conversation critiques elite control, Europe's regulatory self-sabotage, and the need for crypto to prioritize simple, user-friendly retail adoption over institutional capture or tribal infighting.

Crypto is back in the Washington spotlight as momentum around U.S. regulation slows, bipartisan alliances fracture, and pressure mounts on lawmakers to clarify the rules of the road. From stalled Senate negotiations and collapsing crypto coalitions to growing concerns over software developer protections, today’s headlines highlight just how fragile regulatory progress has become. In this segment, we break down what’s really happening in D.C., why political gridlock is creating uncertainty for builders and investors, and how upcoming election dynamics are reshaping the crypto narrative in Washington. Is this just a temporary pause—or a warning sign that U.S. policy risks falling further behind global competitors?
