Over the past week, miners have earned less than 2 BTC on runes.

For example, on April 24, their profit was 884 BTC.

The number of transactions in fleece has also dropped by almost 90%.

Vitalik Buterin criticized the current regulation of cryptocurrencies and said that bona fide developers are cornered.
In his opinion, projects with vague promises of potential revenues are left out of the regulators’ attention, while honest and transparent projects are immediately classified as “securities”.

Buterin called this anarcho-tyranny, where acting honestly becomes risky. Against this backdrop, the industry attracts less bona fide projects.

He believes it should be the other way around: regulators should pay more attention to projects without a clear long-term strategy than to those that provide a clear rationale for their economic value.

The U.S. Supreme Court has issued a decision that limits the powers of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

The Court ruled that the SEC’s use of full-time judges violates the constitutional right to a jury trial.
Following the Supreme Court’s decision, the SEC will once again be forced to rely solely on the federal trial courts to enforce the securities laws and collect financial penalties.

The U.S. Supreme Court struck down a rule that stated that if a statute is unclear or ambiguous, courts must rely on federal agencies’ reasonable interpretation of that statute.

It is now up to the courts to decide whether an agency acted within the scope of its authority. Courts should no longer rely on those agencies’ interpretation of the law.

According to journalist Eleanor Terrett, this is good news for the cryptocurrency industry because the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) will no longer be able to interpret laws regarding digital assets in its own way.

Many have also noted that this decision could play in Ripple’s favor.
