Twitter is the undisputed watering hole of the crypto industry, and something pops up on our feeds that propels the industry along each week. Here's our handy roundup of the tweets that made waves this week.

On Monday, a picture Elon Musk posted of his dog is believed to have contributed to the 266% surge of meme coin Shiba Inu (SHIB).

Although some argue that the association is hard to quantify, the coin set new highs for daily trading volumes—$20 billion on Thursday—making it one of the most traded currencies after Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Tether. It also sent SHIB to the No. 12 spot among all cryptocurrencies by market cap.

On Tuesday, Republican Patrick McHenry introduced the Clarity for Digital Tokens Act, a bill that clears up ambiguities in the SEC’s two-year-old framework for determining whether cryptocurrencies constitute securities.

McHenry’s legislation is based on SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce's proposal for a safe harbor for new cryptocurrency projects, which would provide DeFi developers with a three-year grace period in which to decentralize. 

The updated regulatory framework aims to help American DeFi developers innovate without fear of violating securities laws, whilst simultaneously protecting investors. 

On the same day, Bankless launched its “State of the DAOs” newsletter, a comprehensive overview and continued guideline to help break down the ins and outs of Decentralised Autonomous Organisations.

Bankless DAO just launched its first State of the DAOs newsletter, the high-signal low-noise newsletter for understanding DAOs.

On Wednesday, NFT collector “Cozomo de’Medici” (an identity that Snoop Dogg claimed on September 20) released an intriguingly ambiguous tweet alluding to a “grand awakening” for the art industry. 

He was talking about the success of Justin Aversano’s Twin Flames NFT and emerging developments within NFT photography. According to Cozomo, NFT photos are just as exciting as other digital artworks. 

Twin Flames is considered the definitive "OG" of NFT photography.

The revered co-creator of Nouns DAO, the pseudonymous Evil King Gremplin, had welcomed Snoop to the rapidly growing CrypToadz community a day earlier. Sales for rarer toads, like #1519, have surpassed 400 ETH ($1.4 million). 

If all that wasn’t enough from Snoop, he also declared—from his Cozomo de Medici account—his view that spamming celeb Ethereum wallets with uninvited NFTs is “an insult to artists.”

welcome to the swamp Snoop
