MicroStrategy Inc. co-founder and Chairman Michael Saylor has urged companies to invest in Bitcoin, calling bonds “toxic.” He said this during his presentation at the ICR Conference in Orlando on Monday, where he compared BTC’s performance with bonds since 2020.

Last week, through Executive Order, President Trump took a significant step toward reshaping the future of digital assets by establishing a Crypto Council led by investor and entrepreneur David Sacks. This Executive Order, coupled with the recent reversal of SAB 121 – an ill-conceived policy that made it prohibitively difficult for banks to custody crypto assets – demonstrates that the new administration is serious about removing barriers to crypto adoption. This council represents a golden opportunity to undo significant damage inflicted on the crypto industry during the Biden Administration.

Memecoin generator Pump.fun was hit with another proposed class action lawsuit on Thursday, accusing the company and its executives of raking in nearly $500 million in fees while violating U.S. securities laws. The suit, filed in the Southern District of New York (SDNY), hinges on the crypto industry’s biggest lingering question — when is a token a security? Though the suit alleges that every token created using Pump.fun’s platform is a security, and thus subject to U.S. securities laws, that’s far from a matter of settled law. Under the new Donald Trump Administration, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)…
