In this episode of the Friday Five, Bitcoin is once again at the center of global attention. The Federal Reserve highlighted stablecoins and tokenization at its latest conference, while the SEC and CFTC issued a rare joint statement on spot crypto trading, signaling tighter regulatory oversight ahead. Meanwhile, Trump-linked ventures are making waves: World Liberty Financial (WLFI) is pitching a vision of crypto-driven wealth, even blacklisting Justin Sun's wallet, while the Trump-backed American Bitcoin (ABTC) mining IPO was halted after wild volatility. On another front, Polymarket has relaunched in the U.S., bringing decentralized prediction markets back into play with a compliance-first strategy. From Washington's regulatory moves to Trump's crypto empire and market infrastructure shifts, Bitcoin's role in politics, finance, and adoption has never been more front and center.

The U.S. is stepping deeper into crypto and markets are feeling it. Powell's Jackson Hole speech warned against cutting rates too soon, while Trump's move to oust Fed Governor Lisa Cook sparked a legal fight over Fed independence. At the same time, the Commerce Department is publishing GDP data on-chain through Chainlink, and Google Cloud unveiled a new blockchain (GCUL) for institutions. Banks are lobbying against stablecoins, the U.S. is taking a 10% stake in Intel but not Nvidia, and Bitcoin faces pressure as transaction fees hit their lowest since 2011 and a whale dumped 24,000 BTC, driving the price below $110K.

Bitcoin sits near $110K as all eyes turn to Jerome Powell's Jackson Hole decision and whether the Fed will signal rate cuts or stick with “higher-for-longer.” Washington heats up with Senator Lummis pushing a crypto market structure bill, the DOJ easing enforcement on developers, and banks lobbying to reshape the GENIUS Act. Globally, China explores yuan-backed stablecoins, while whales shift from Bitcoin into Ethereum and BlackRock doubles down on ETH. Even the Kanye West memecoin shows the risks of speculation. With policy, institutions, and macro all colliding, the key question remains: will the Fed's decision spark Bitcoin's next big move?

This week's Friday Five is packed with U.S. government moves that signal crypto policy has shifted from rhetoric to action.

They also cover Trump's executive orders opening 401(k)s to Bitcoin and other private assets, targeting bank discrimination, and appointing a crypto-friendly Fed governor—all part of a broader trend toward tangible pro-crypto measures.

Aaron McIntire unpacks a packed Friday five-pack. President Trump defends Operation Warp Speed as “one of the most incredible things ever done,” despite his Health Secretary pulling mRNA vaccine research funding, sparking base frustration. The Trump administration tightens H-1B visa rules with mandatory interviews starting September, slowing the process to curb big tech's reliance on cheap foreign labor. A new census excluding illegal immigrants could reshape congressional districts, while Florida joins Texas in redistricting to vaporize Democrat seats. Holly, a Cincinnati assault victim, demands more police and accountability after a brutal attack by a repeat offender. R.C. Sproul's viral clip rebukes a low view of God's justice, and McIntire answers listener questions in Ask or Tell Me Anything.   Donald Trump, Operation Warp Speed, H-1B visa, census reform, Florida redistricting, Texas redistricting, Cincinnati crime, Holly assault, R.C. Sproul, Christian theology, transgenderism, Niza Powers, Ask or Tell Me Anything, GOP strategy, deep state    

This week, the U.S. government took major steps that could shape the future of crypto. I'll break down Trump's executive orders, new SEC staking guidance, Hester Peirce's powerful privacy speech, and what the Fed's new crypto-friendly nominee means for markets.

This week's Friday Five is dominated by a stunning speech from the new SEC Chair, signaling a dramatic shift in U.S. crypto policy. NLW breaks down the speech's implications, from safe harbors and tokenization to a renewed embrace of crypto within securities law. Also on the docket: Powell's hawkish tone and Trump's renewed feud with the Fed, Ray Dalio's bold portfolio advice, a volatile week for crypto treasury companies, and the game-changing JPMorgan-Coinbase partnership that redefines institutional crypto access. All that plus Bitcoin weathers an 80,000-coin liquidation without blinking. Enjoying this content?

This week on Friday Five, I'm joined by Nathaniel Whittemore to unpack a massive week for crypto and macro. The Fed held rates steady but signaled hawkishness, prompting Trump to unleash on Powell again. We dive into Ray Dalio's “point of no return” warning, the Galaxy 80K BTC stress test, the Bitmine buyback flop, and the underwhelming White House crypto report.

In this episode of Your Friday Five, Dr. Matthea dives into the underrated power of mastery—what it means, how it builds over time, and why chasing the basics can take you further than constant novelty. Inspired by a speaker who's delivered over 13,000 talks, she reflects on how consistent small tweaks in her own health routines (hello, walking and protein!) have paid off more than all-or-nothing efforts. If you've been tempted to overhaul everything, this episode is your reminder to go back to the foundations—and master them.

This week's Friday Five dives into a deceptively quiet but consequential stretch for crypto. NLW and Scott Melker break down Dan Tapiero's massive $50 trillion crypto prediction, institutional progress like JPMorgan's collateralized crypto lending and Christie's $1B real estate crypto push, and how Ethereum is finally finding its moment. Plus, a look at the evolving Senate version of the crypto market structure bill, lobbying momentum in D.C., and Coinbase's bold new move with U.S.-based perpetual futures. The theme? The institutional floodgates are opening—and crypto is normalizing fast. Enjoying this content?

NLW returns with a jam-packed Friday Five (or Friday 500) to break down the biggest crypto week of the summer. The Genius and Clarity Acts both pass the House with overwhelming bipartisan support—marking the first major crypto legislation on its way to becoming law. Trump floats a retirement-focused crypto investment EO, while the total crypto market cap tops $4 trillion and Ethereum ETFs begin to shine. Meanwhile, a dormant Bitcoin whale awakens, moving billions, raising speculation about Roger Ver or Adam Back. Plus: the U.S. Marshals' BTC holdings spark FOIA drama, and Trump fires up the Fed chaos machine with Powell threats. A defining week in crypto's march to legitimacy. Enjoying this content?

It's another Friday Five, and the top story is clear: Bitcoin has surged to a new all-time high, nearing $119,000. NLW breaks down what's driving the price action, from broader market optimism fueled by IPO resurgence and treasury company mania, to structural crypto demand spurred by ETFs. Plus, Elon Musk's America Party embraces Bitcoin, Fed minutes hint at imminent rate cuts amid tariff uncertainty, a mysterious whale moves $8 billion in ancient Bitcoin, and Capitol Hill gears up for a crucial crypto policy showdown next week.
