ChainCatcher news, Gemini co-founder Tyler Winklevoss lambasted Gary Gensler on the X platform. He stated: Gary Gensler should never hold a position of influence, power, or authority again. Any company, university, or organization that hires or collaborates with him after the SEC is a betrayal of the crypto industry and should be strongly resisted. This is the only way to prevent such abuses of government power from happening again in the future.Gary Gensler's actions cannot be explained as a good-faith mistake. His behavior is entirely calculated and deliberate, aimed at advancing his personal political agenda at all costs, even if it means destroying an industry, tens of thousands of jobs, people's livelihoods, billions of dollars in investment capital, and more. Ironically, his antisocial ambitions ultimately ruined his own party.No amount of apologies can make up for the damage Gary Gensler has done to the crypto industry and the country. Such a person should not be in any institution, large or small. Americans have had enough of their tax dollars going to a government that is supposed to protect them but is instead used by politicians who want to undermine their success. It is time to put an end to this pathology once and for all.

ChainCatcher news, Gemini co-founder Cameron Winklevoss stated that Bitcoin reaching $80,000 is primarily driven by sustained institutional demand through spot Bitcoin ETFs, rather than retail investor activity.He believes that this "sticky" demand from institutional investors is a sign of long-term bullish sentiment, and the current market cycle is still in its early stages.Winklevoss said, "The road to Bitcoin reaching $80,000 is paved by stable ETF demand. It's not retail FOMO. There's no fanfare. People are buying ETFs, not selling them. This is sticky HODL-style capital. The floor price keeps rising, we just won the coin toss, and the game hasn't really started yet."
