in the last 48 hours alone: - Binance $6.2 billion back - Polymarket hack - Chainalysis (the firm that top crypto organizations use to track crypto hackers) hack yet we'll still have people saying we got lucky when we start flashing the PNLs in a few months/years' time

Nice try, but what you’re citing is a savings clause. It keeps existing finance and sanctions law in force but it doesn’t erase the rest of the section. What you fail to understand about the Clarity Act is that it would classify Binance as a covered person because it is a digital asset service provider. No law stops every bad actor, but the Clarity Act would have given the people fighting them better tools and the ability to act faster. Your party voted no, and you have to own that. Thanks for playing, Amanda Fischer!
This is not true. Clarity requires stablecoin issuers to freeze per a court order. For exchanges, here’s the relevant language. Check out (1) below.

Over the past 24 hours, our teams have been working around the clock to respond to a serious security incident involving unauthorized withdrawals of funds. This is a live update on where things stand - what we've done, what we've learned, and what comes next. Bottom line: Binance will absorb the financial impact of these stolen funds, not our users. Over $6.34B reserved, $5B already held in the exact impacted assets. ~$3B frozen so far with our partners, Withdrawals resume once security checks are done. Then our Proof of Reserves, and a full post-mortem. We are grateful to our users for their patience and understanding. Read the full update:

‼️ Chainalysis, the firm that tracks crypto hackers, was hacked itself. It told customers in an email seen by ICD that an attacker using "offensive agentic techniques" accessed users' names, emails and role labels. It says this has nothing to do with the $6.3B Binance heist.

1) Seems weird CZ would come out and immediately make it clear that he doesn’t run Binance anymore(we all know he runs it). Weird that Yi again reiterates this via calling him “major shareholder”. 2) Elon has made it obvious he us team hyperliquid. Might he plan to use them as a proxy to rid crypto of the cartel? 3) All of this seems planned. Circle/Tether froze funds freakishly fast. One employee w power to make $6b blunder? Idk if Binance has/had a hole in their balance sheet and needed to drive price down to try and cover cheaper or what, but something is going on. I do not get a lot of confidence from Binance comms thus far. Seems like desperation. Similar to when Caroline Ellison tweeted ab buying CZ’s FTT for $22. Idk. Not a good feeling. Would prob be good for the industry if they were gone for good though. 10/10 now this. Ppl are over them.
