Connect your Kryptos account. Ask @ChatGPT about your portfolio in plain English.
That’s the simplicity I’m excited about. Your actual crypto data, one conversation away.
Big step from @KryptosConnect. 👀
You open four different apps just to see what your crypto is worth.
Just connect @KryptosConnect to @ChatGPT once.
It will instantly pull in your real balances, transactions and upcoming tax reports.
Just type:
“What’s my BTC, ETH, and SOL value right now?”
“Am I up or down this month?”

Dear Prime Minister Ambani,
Please accept my humble apologies for not realizing that you are the real boss of India.
Naturally, you would prefer to maintain your monopolistic exploitation of the great people of India, but would you nonetheless consider allowing Starlink to compete?
There are many areas of India, as there are in all countries, with no Internet access, which denies children the opportunity for education and for small businesses the opportunity to sell their goods to a global market. Starlink would change their lives for the better.
Thank you 🙏

Exchanges with US users: your support team is about to meet the 1099-DA.
Users file Oct 15 with a form that shows proceeds, not basis.
"Your form says $48,210. I only made $2,100."
From 2026 purchases, basis is on you.
Same numbers on both sides, or the tickets keep coming.
Reply to your own post (adds the call to action without crowding the main one):
We've been fixing this with exchanges at @KryptosConnect. If your support team is drowning in 1099-DA tickets, DMs are open.

The SEC innovation exemption and the CFTC filings are the more durable signal here. Rules built through active rulemaking tend to stick around longer than a bill that could get renegotiated next session. Worth tracking the compliance mechanics, not just the vote count.
The Clarity Act collapses in the Senate 49-50, the SEC unveils a 5-year tokenized stocks exemption, and Anthropic's Dario Amodei sparks an AI industry fight over slowing down frontier development.
Full breakdown below.

The consolidated tape problem already exists in crypto today, before tokenized securities add to it. Nobody has a single source of truth across chains and venues right now. Tokenization just raises the stakes on a reconciliation problem that was never solved.
The SEC’s announcement yesterday could accelerate the trading of tokenized securities across multiple platforms, blockchains, and liquidity pools, but who maintains the definitive record of what an investor actually owns?
There’s currently no consolidated tape, single custodian or guarantee that positions, cost basis, and transaction history will be reconciled across venues which exacerbates an existing problem in crypto. Dividends, splits, voting rights, and other corporate actions will need to be tracked and reconciled across multiple networks and trading venues.
While the crypto industry is focused on putting every asset onchain fiduciaries and regulated entities are concerned about how they’ll be accounted for once they’re there. I submitted a comment to the SEC yesterday outlining some of these gaps.
With the CLARITY Act on hold the regulatory updates from the @CFTC and the @SECGov are coming quickly, but the operational infrastructure is struggling to keep up.

Circle shipping Arc as its own L1 says something simple: stablecoin issuers no longer want to be tenants on someone else's chain. More issuers will want direct control of settlement, which means more fragmented rails to reconcile flows across.

A five year exemption for tokenized stock trading is a green light, not a finished rulebook. Firms that move first still need to prove clean recordkeeping under whatever framework the SEC eventually formalizes.

Same instinct we operate on. Waiting for perfect legislative clarity means building nothing. A CFTC no-action letter or an SEC exemption order is something you can design a compliance process around today, a bill that might pass next year is not.
Coinbase fell 10% when the CLARITY Act stalled in the Senate on Tuesday. It is up 11% today because the CFTC and SEC moved anyway, one with no action relief, one with a tokenized stock exemption.
I build against rules I can read, not bills that might pass.

Plaid didn't build banks, it built the connective layer that let fintechs stop reinventing bank data plumbing. Crypto still lacks that layer. Every exchange, chain, and wallet speaks a different dialect, and most teams rebuild the translation from scratch.

Voluntary disclosure programs only work if the transaction data is reconstructable. Most crypto investors can't produce clean cost basis across wallets and exchanges without infrastructure built for it. That's the real bottleneck, not the legislative language.
CLARITY failed in the Senate.
But while everyone was watching CLARITY, another crypto bill moved forward — and this one could directly impact what you owe the IRS.
Wash sale rules. Crypto losses. Charitable donations. Voluntary disclosure.
And one proposed rule could even affect trades happening NOW.
Andrew Gordon breaks down what crypto investors need to know.

We came to Barcelona as one of 12 finalists.
We’re leaving @EBlockchainCon with winning at the EBC12 Startup Battle, and a €20,000 grant. 🏆
Kryptos was built on one conviction: crypto finance cannot scale on fragmented data.
Today, that conviction earned its place on the podium.

Germany drafted a bill this week to end its one year crypto tax exemption, replacing it with a flat 25% tax from 2028. Still a draft. The point stands regardless: tax breaks tied to holding period vanish in one policy cycle, and most portfolios can't prove holding periods.

Institutional crypto adoption keeps getting framed as a custody problem. It's a reporting problem. A bank can custody an asset it can't reconcile for a 10-Q. That's the actual gate, not cold storage.

Senate holds a cloture vote on the CLARITY Act Sept 15. Whatever the outcome, the SEC/CFTC jurisdiction split it proposes doesn't fix the deeper problem: neither agency gets clean data from chains and exchanges today. Clarity on jurisdiction isn't clarity on data.

Crypto's bottleneck was never transaction speed. It's data. Every chain, exchange, and wallet formats activity differently, so compliance and reporting start with reconciliation instead of analysis. Plaid solved that for bank data. Web3 hasn't solved it yet.

The tax code didn't just get the policy wrong, it assumed portfolios could reconstruct cost basis and holding period on demand. Most can't. That's why DAC8, CARF, and 1099-DA all land the same way: a data problem dressed as a policy problem.

Crypto investors have been impacted by a backwards tax code for the last ten years.
It’s time for us to be part of the discussion, not just hurt by it.
Join me
Crypto policy can’t be shaped only by the biggest lobbyists.
We’re in Washington making sure everyday investors are part of the conversation and sharing the real-world impact these rules have on taxpayers.
We’ll keep showing up. We’ll keep telling your stories.
The future of crypto is being shaped now.
