Last year, Gensler spoke at a Senate Banking Committee hearing saying that stablecoins may require registration and regulation with the SEC.

In a Twitter update on June 22, pseudonymous trader Credible Crypto argued that the next four months should deliver the bullish BTC price momentum needed to tackle $69,000.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhats clear with any parabolic advance is that momentum increases exponentially and peaks at the top. We can see this in both prior impulsive moves from 3k-14k and from 10k-60k,\u201d he explained. This time around, Bitcoin has delivered a successful retest of support on monthly timeframes, with $25,000 now possibly a springboard for a new \u201cparabolic advance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI would expect that once expansion begins (which it looks like it has) we should see monthly moves of &gt; 10k at a time, easily. From current levels to prior ATH is a $40,000 gap. This gap should then, logically, be covered within a few monthly candles if this is a parabolic advance,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-fud-of-the-week\"><strong>FUD of the Week\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3 id=\"h-\"><\/h3>\n<h2 id=\"h-prime-trust-can-t-honor-customer-withdrawals-says-nevada-regulator\"><strong><strong>Prime Trust can\u2019t honor customer withdrawals, says Nevada regulator<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Prime Trust\u2019s financial condition is \u201ccritically deficient,\u201d and the crypto custodian has been unable to honor customer withdrawals since June 21, according to Nevada\u2019s business regulator.
