Enforcement against fraud remains intact. Rules targeting illicit finance stay in place. KYC and AML compliance requirements continue unchanged.

Yet something fundamental has shifted for the crypto ecosystem. Builders, traders, and everyday users are looking at a regulatory landscape that's undergone a structural transformation.

This could be the most supportive policy realignment the U.S. has signaled toward crypto—at least in terms of how the ground rules now sit. The clarity matters. The stability of these guardrails matters more.

Hmm... KYC/AML hasn't changed, anti-fraud measures haven't loosened, but it seems like the foundation has been relaid? Theoretically, it should be feasible. --- Another "structural shift," now I have to take out my thesis pen. --- What sounds good is clarity, but whether it can be implemented depends on the next steps. But for now, let's put aside Lu Ban No.7's tools. --- Hey, are the guardrails stable? When will my frozen funds be available again? --- Really? Supportive alignment? Let me try it on the testnet first before saying anything.

Finally, there are some reliable signals, although all those FUDs before should die... ngl, this reform won't count until it actually happens; just talking without action is meaningless. Does the US really want to embrace it, or are they just digging a hole again... Those in the know have already seen through it; clarity is everything. Wait, do we still need to submit KYC? Then small coins still have no future.

ngl this time the US is really serious, all the previous FUD was pointless clarity is everything to us, it's money, no need to be anxious all the time KYC procedures haven't changed, but the attitude feels completely different... this is what we want

hypothesis: we're basically witnessing the regulatory oracle finally syncing with market reality... the guardrails shifting feels less like permission & more like the system bridging the gap between what *actually* exists vs what bureaucrats pretend doesn't clarity's cool but ngl, i'm still waiting to see if this holds or we get another whiplash cycle in q2
