How Kanye West’s Crypto Pivot Is Fueling Antisemitism and Nazi-Themed Meme Coins

Tens of thousands of crypto degens are hailing the musician Ye—formerly known as Kanye West—as their führer in the hopes that he’ll announce that an existing Solana meme coin is his long-teased official token. And these communities have become a breeding ground for antisemitism and Nazi ideologies, echoing the artist’s own comments in recent years. When accusations of antisemitism are leveled against these meme coin communities, questionable comments are brushed off as just a joke or met with a...

The Year in Crypto: War on Digital Privacy

Privacy is not a crime.  Yet when it comes to the crypto industry, projects and coins that enable users to tread lightly on-chain are facing higher levels of scrutiny than ever before. In 2024, government-led efforts to combat the use of coin-mixing services continued apace as developers behind Bitcoin Fog, Tornado Cash, and Samouri Wallet all faced challenges in court. Meanwhile, so-called privacy coins faced hurdles as some exchanges stopped supporting them. With Bitcoin’s pioneers drawing ins...

The Year in Crypto: Gary Gone Wild

As the Securities and Exchange Commission’s five voting members sat before lawmakers on Capitol Hill in September, House Financial Services Committee Chair Patrick McHenry (R-NC) pressed the agency’s head about a supposed lack of regulatory clarity regarding crypto. “The laws are clear, and it’s written by the Supreme Court,” SEC Chair Gary Gensler began to say before McHenry cut him off—turning to Gensler’s Republican-appointed colleague, SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce, to ask about the agency’...
