Colorado Avalanche Post July 1st Aarif Deen of Colorado Hockey NOW (mailbag): The Colorado Avalanche still do not know what Martin Necas would ultimately sign for.

On July 17, the U.S. House of Representatives voted 308 to 122 in favor of the GENIUS Act, a bill focused entirely on stablecoins. The legislation is now on its way to President Trump’s desk, potentially setting the stage for the first clear federal rules around dollar-pegged digital tokens. Stablecoins Get the Spotlight The GENIUS Act lays out a simple rule: every stablecoin must be backed one-to-one with cash or liquid assets, and issuers must make those reserves public. Supporters say this could help prevent another Terra-style meltdown and finally give U.S. users a stablecoin they can actually trust. Tomorrow…

Ethereum blasted past $3.6K for the first time since January. And as the Kobeissi Letter pointed out, it’s right in the middle of one of the biggest short squeezes crypto has ever seen. Here’s what happened: At the start of July, tons of traders were shorting ETH. (Quick explainer: shorting = betting the price will drop. You borrow ETH, sell it now, and hope to buy it back cheaper later so you can keep the difference. But if the price goes up instead, you lose money.) But at the same time, big dawgs like Ethereum treasury companies and ETFs were…

Fifty years ago this month, Lou Reed near­ly destroyed his own career with one dou­ble album. Met­al Machine Music sold 100,000 copies dur­ing the three weeks of sum­mer 1975 between its release and its removal from the mar­ket. More than a few of the many buy­ers who prompt­ly returned it would have been expect­ing some­thing like Sal­ly Can’t Dance, Reed’s solo album from the pre­vi­ous year, whose slick­ly pro­duced songs went down eas­i­er than any­thing he’d record­ed with the Vel­vet Under­ground. What they heard when they put the new album on their turnta­bles (or insert­ed the Quadro­phon­ic 8‑track tape into…
