Hi, by Economy Friends, last week in crypto felt like a crossover episode between tech, finance, and politics. A defy platform decided to open a lobbying shop in Washington. Regulators gave the green light to round the clock trading. Celebrities mingled with bankers at Mara Lago Crypto Summit and a long-stalled market structure bill finally looks poised for action. Meanwhile, the Fed reminded everyone that higher rates are still a possibility. Let's break down what happened between February 17th and 23rd. and what it means for the market. To set the stage, the majors traded in a tight range. Bitcoin hovered around $66, Ethereum just under $2 ,000, Solana just under $81, and XRP about $1.40. With volatility muted, investors had time to digest this mix of policy moves and industry developments. Now the highlights. Hyperliquid launches a defy lobby. Hyperliquids, a layer one blockchain and perpetual futures exchange, announced the Hyperliquid Policy Center in Washington, D .C. Hyperliquid's goal is to push for a regulated path for D5, especially perpetual derivatives and blockchain -based financial infrastructure within U.S. law. To fund the effort, the Hyper Foundation will contribute 1 million Hype token. This move signals that sophisticated DFI projects now see lobbying as essential to their long-term success. CME plans round-the-clock crypto-trading. On the market infrastructure front, CME Groups added will launch 24-7 trading for its crypto futures and options on May 29, pending regulatory approval. Contracts will trade continuously on CME glowbacks with only a two-hour weekend maintenance window. All weekend trades will settle and be reported the next business day. And CME noted that average daily volumes for its crypto products are up 46% year over year. The announcement follows joint statements from the SEC and CFTC exploring a shift to 24-7 capital markets. As NASDAQ and NYSC prepare similar expansions, CNE's move underscores how mainstream exchanges are aligning with crypto's always-on-nature and could pressure others to follow. Inside Trump's Mar-Lago Crypto Summit. In a headline that sounded like satire but wasn't, World Liberty Financial, a company in which the Trump family holds a 38% stake. hosted a crypto summit at Maralago. The event united traditional finance leaders like Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon and Binance founder, CZ, to discuss tokenization and stable coins. World Liberty announced partnerships with Apex Group and securitized to tokenize real-world assets, hoping to expand use of its USD1 stable coin in corporate finance and remittances. The long-awaited Digital Asset Market Clarity Act gained new momentum when Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse told Fox business he sees a 90% chance of the bill passing by the end of April. The bill passed the house with a bipartisan majority in July 2025, but stalled over jurisdictional disputes. He also noted that corporate treasurers are increasingly interested in stable points, but need federal guardrails. Prediction markets still pack the bill's chances around 78%, but if passed, it could remove legal uncertainty and unlock institutional capital. Fed Minutes point to potential rate hikes. Minutes from the Federal Open Market Committee's January meeting revealed that some policymakers support upward adjustments to interest rates if inflation remains above target. The Fed kept rates steady at 3.5 -3.75%, but this hawkish language is notable, given recent rate cuts. Futures markets still assign a 94% probability that rates will stay unchanged at the March meeting. Last week's stories highlight how deeply interconnected crypto has become with policy and mainstream finance. Hyperliquid's lobbying effort acknowledges that navigating Washington is now a core competency. for Defi Protocol. CME's move to 24-7 trading brings legacy markets closer to crypto's always-on ethos. The Mar-a-Lago summit signals that tokenization and stable points have moved from French to front-road topics, albeit with political baggage. And both the Clarity Act momentum and the Fed's hawkish minutes remind us that macro and regulatory developments remain key drivers. Thank you for watching. I'll see you next week.

It is a refuge. A rebellion. A return to what Hive.blog was always meant to be. There is no downvote button on Blurt. Not because we fear dissent—but because we honor creation. Because we understand that a voice, once raised in sincerity, deserves space—not sabotage. On Blurt, your words are your words. They are not hunted by algorithmic hounds or shadow armies masquerading as “curators.” Here, you are not judged by the grudges of gatekeepers, but met with the quiet dignity of a community that believes expression should be encouraged— especially when it is bold, raw, or inconvenient. Contrast this with what festers elsewhere. On Hive.blog—a place once brimming with promise—a rot has taken root. Not in its code, but in its culture. A handful of self anointed enforcers—@themarkymark, @Buildawhale, @Hurtlocker, and their legion of coordinated puppets—have turned the downvote into a weapon of mass discouragement. They strike not at “low quality content,” but at independent thought , at rising voices , at anyone who dares thrive outside their narrow corridors of control . And when confronted, they shrug. “Oh, it’s not censorship,” they say, as if semantics could scrub the stain of suppression from their hands. But let us be unequivocal: When a system allows a few to systematically silence many—under the guise of “community standards” or “curation”—that is not moderation. That is censorship by another name. It is the velvet glove over the iron fist. It is exclusion dressed as discernment. It is power pretending to be principle. Meanwhile, Blurt stands clean handed and open hearted. No downvotes. No hidden juries. No farms of phantom accounts casting ballots in the dark. Just you. Your words. And a community that meets you not with suspicion, but with solidarity. So let us carry this truth far and wide—not with bitterness, but with quiet certainty: If you seek a place where your voice is not a target—but a gift—come to Blurt. If you are tired of building on ground that shifts with every whim of a whale or warlord of votes—lay your bricks here. If you believe the future of free expression must be free —not just from corporations, but from the petty tyrants who replace them—then stand with us. The world needs to know. Not because Blurt is perfect—but because it is principled . Not because it is loud—but because it listens . And in an age where so many platforms echo with the clatter of control, Blurt offers something radical: Silence for the bullies. Space for the rest of us. Keep speaking. Keep sharing. Keep building. Freedom doesn’t advertise itself— it is passed, person to person, like a torch in the night. And tonight, the torch burns bright on Blurt. @themarkymark, @buildawhale, @usainvote, and associated accounts: Repeated downvotes targeting transparency efforts raise urgent questions about Hive’s governance. Automated tactics, coordinated curation trails, and alt account farming undermine trust in the platform. When truth is silenced without dialogue, it erodes Hive’s decentralized ethos. Key Concerns: 1. Systemic Manipulation : Coordinated downvotes from high HP accounts suppress dissent, creating a chilling effect on free expression. Automation and alt account networks allegedly exploit rewards, distorting organic curation. 2. Community Exodus : Creators flee to platforms like Blurt, where downvotes don’t exist, fearing punitive curation over engagement. 3. Governance Crisis : Hive’s credibility hinges on accountability. Who decides what content thrives? How do we audit power structures? Solutions Needed: Curation Transparency : Publish clear rationales for downvotes to foster trust. Community Audits : Leverage blockchain data (e.g., Bilpcoin’s analyses) to identify abusive patterns. Reward Reform : Adjust algorithms to penalize manipulation and reward authentic engagement. The Bilpcoin team advocates for open dialogue, not division. Hive’s future depends on collaboration—not coercion. Let’s rebuild a platform where truth isn’t buried but debated, strengthened, and celebrated. Transparency isn’t optional—it’s the foundation of trust. HiveTransparency BilpcoinExposed DecentralizePower" A Message to @themarkymark, @buildawhale, and Associates Every downvote cast in shadow, every silence imposed without dialogue, is not a victory—it is a confession. A confession that truth cannot be stifled, only delayed. With each punitive click, you dig deeper into the bedrock of credibility, crafting a chasm between your actions and the community’s trust. @themarkymark, @buildawhale & Co, How can you continue to downvote the truth, LOL? It’s almost comical how blatantly you attempt to suppress what cannot be hidden. The blockchain records everything—every action, every transaction, every move you make. Yet still, you persist in this futile game of trying to silence what is undeniable. @themarkymark, @buildawhale, and Co: While our opinions may differ, on chain transparency reveals repeated patterns of concern. Coordinated downvotes without explanation, 'farming' schemes (e.g., buildawhalefarm), and adversarial engagement harm Hive’s community driven ethos. Key Issues to Address: 1. Downvote Practices : Silencing dissent erodes trust. Constructive dialogue, not punitive curation, fosters growth. 2. Accountability : Transactions and curation trails are public. Scrutiny is inevitable—integrity demands addressing concerns openly. 3. Community Impact : Driving users to platforms like Blurt/Steemit weakens Hive. Creators seek ecosystems that value collaboration over conflict. A Path Forward: Engage in open discussions about governance and fairness. Audit curation practices to align with Hive’s decentralized values. Prioritize transparency—publish explanations for downvotes or collaborative reforms. The Bilpcoin team remains committed to exposing truth and advocating for solutions. Let’s work toward healing, not division. Note: All claims are based on publicly verifiable blockchain data. Constructive dialogue is encouraged. HiveTransparency CommunityFirst BilpcoinSupport" @themarkymark & Co, the choice is yours. Stop the bad downvotes. Turn off the BuildaWhale scam farm. Cease playing with people’s livelihoods. Let Hive thrive as it was meant to—as a beacon of hope, creativity, and collaboration. Or step aside and let those who truly care take the reins. Because the truth won’t disappear. No amount of lies can change it. It’s over. The Bilpcoin team brings these truths not out of malice but necessity. We have no need to fabricate lies or cloak our intentions CALL US WHAT YOU LIKE —for the facts speak loudly enough on their own. What we present here is not conjecture but reality, laid bare for anyone willing to see. @themarkymark & Co we urge you once more: STOP . Stop hiding behind tactics that harm others. Stop clinging to practices that erode trust within the Hive community. Let the truth stand—not because we proclaim it, but because it exists independent of any one person’s approval or disdain. TURN OFF THE BUILDAWHALE SCAM FARM STOP THE BAD DOWNVOTES STOP PLAYING WITH PEOPLE’S LIVELIHOODS Key Issues That Demand Immediate Attention: The problems are glaring, undeniable, and corrosive to the Hive ecosystem. They must be addressed without delay: Downvote abuse Farming schemes Speaking disrespectfully to others Encouraging people to avoid certain users out of personal dislike Self voting with alt accounts Self funding projects through self votes Promoting games that don’t even exist (LOL) These practices harm not just individual users—they undermine the very foundation of Hive, eroding trust and poisoning the community. Such actions are unethical and outright destructive. @buildawhale Wallet: HIVE (Primary Token): 0.012 Staked HIVE (HP): 66,400.611 Total HP: 2,421,539.226 Delegated HIVE: +2,355,138.615 HP Received: 2,355,080 HP from @blocktrades (Aug 16, 2020) @usainvote Wallet: HIVE (Primary Token): 0.066 Staked HIVE (HP): 138,123.296 Total HP: 715,745.407 Delegated HIVE: +577,622.111 HP Received: 577,622 HP from @blocktrades (Aug 16, 2020) @buildawhale/wallet @usainvote/wallet @ipromote Wallet: Author Rewards: 2,181.16 Curation Rewards: 4,015.61 Staked HIVE (HP): 0.00 Rewards/Stake Co efficient (KE): NaN HIVE: 25,203.749 Staked HIVE (HP): 0.000 Delegated HIVE: 0.000 Estimated Account Value: $6,946.68 Recent Activity: Sent to alpha 5,196.000 HIVE (21 hours ago) Sent to hiveswap 1,000.000 HIVE (2 days ago) Withdraw vesting from @proposalalert to @ipromote 0.447 HIVE (3 days ago) Received from proposalalert 4.003 HIVE (5 days ago) Received from themarkymark 1,775.684 HIVE (9 days ago) Sent to alpha 4,245.000 HIVE (9 days ago) Received from themarkymark 4,280.527 HIVE (17 days ago) @leovoter Wallet: Author Rewards: 194.75 Curation Rewards: 193.88 Staked HIVE (HP): 0.00 Rewards/Stake Co efficient (KE): 388,632.00 (Suspiciously High) HIVE: 0.000 Staked HIVE (HP): 0.001 Total: 16.551 Delegated HIVE: +16.550 Recent Activity: Withdraw vesting from @leovoter to @ipromote 0.053 HIVE (Sep 29, 2024) Withdraw vesting from @leovoter to @ipromote 0.053 HIVE (Sep 22, 2024) Withdraw vesting from @leovoter to @ipromote 0.053 HIVE (Sep 15, 2024) Withdraw vesting from @leovoter to @ipromote 0.053 HIVE (Sep 8, 2024) Withdraw vesting from @leovoter to @ipromote 0.053 HIVE (Sep 1, 2024) @abide Wallet: Recent Activity: Sent to ipromote 2,459.000 HIVE (22 days ago) Sent to ipromote 2,486.200 HIVE (Apr 1, 2025) Received from yabapmatt 20,000.000 HIVE (Apr 1, 2025) Sent to ipromote 2,130.400 HIVE (Mar 8, 2025) Sent to ipromote 2,248.000 HIVE (Feb 2, 2025) Sent to yabapmatt 5,000.000 HIVE (Jan 25, 2025) @proposalalert Wallet: Author Rewards: 639.99 Curation Rewards: 0.00 Staked HIVE (HP): 6.03 Rewards/Stake Co efficient (KE): 106.12 Recent Activity: Withdraw vesting from @proposalalert to @ipromote 0.447 HIVE (3 days ago) Sent to ipromote 4.003 HIVE (5 days ago) Sent to themarkymark 0.012 HBD (5 days ago) Withdraw vesting from @proposalalert to @ipromote 0.447 HIVE (10 days ago) Withdraw vesting from @proposalalert to @ipromote 0.446 HIVE (17 days ago) @stemgeeks Wallet: Author Rewards: 4,391.77 Curation Rewards: 304.26 Staked HIVE (HP): 0.00 Rewards/Stake Co efficient (KE): 4,696,032.00 (Extremely Suspicious) Recent Activity: Sent to themarkymark 1.556 HBD (Jun 14, 2024) Claim rewards: 1.556 HBD, 5.912 HP (Jun 14, 2024) Withdraw vesting from @stemgeeks to @ipromote 6.160 HIVE (Jun 8, 2024) Sent to themarkymark 1.601 HBD (Jun 7, 2024) Withdraw vesting from @stemgeeks to @ipromote 6.157 HIVE (Jun 1, 2024) Sent to ipromote 1.618 HBD (May 31, 2024) @theycallmemarky Wallet: Author Rewards: 458.89 Curation Rewards: 0.00 Staked HIVE (HP): 0.00 Rewards/Stake Co efficient (KE): 458,886.00 (Highly Suspicious) Recent Activity: Withdraw vesting from @theycallmemarky to @ipromote 0.728 HIVE (Jan 12, 2025) Withdraw vesting from @theycallmemarky to @ipromote 0.727 HIVE (Jan 5, 2025) Withdraw vesting from @theycallmemarky to @ipromote 0.727 HIVE (Dec 29, 2024) Withdraw vesting from @theycallmemarky to @ipromote 0.727 HIVE (Dec 22, 2024) Withdraw vesting from @theycallmemarky to @ipromote 0.726 HIVE (Dec 15, 2024) Withdraw vesting from @theycallmemarky to @ipromote 0.726 HIVE (Dec 8, 2024) Withdraw vesting from @theycallmemarky to @ipromote 0.725 HIVE (Dec 1, 2024) Sent to ipromote 9.202 HIVE (Oct 17, 2024) @apeminingclub Wallet: Author Rewards: 432.57 Curation Rewards: 2,829.11 Staked HIVE (HP): 30.51 Rewards/Stake Co efficient (KE): 106.90 Recent Activity: Scheduled unstake (power down): 2.351 HIVE (in 4 days, remaining 7 weeks) Total Staked HIVE: 1,292.019 Delegated HIVE: +1,261.508 Received delegations: @xykorlz: 624 HP (Jan 26, 2024) @bashadow: 111 HP (Sep 20, 2021) @dechuck: 104 HP (Mar 10, 2024) @hironakamura: 76 HP (Aug 23, 2022) Withdraw vesting from @apeminingclub to @blockheadgames 2.348 HIVE (10 days ago) Claim rewards: 0.290 HP (10 days ago)
