GURA: A HODLer is crypto-speak for someone who bought cryptocurrency and who's held on to it, despite its extreme volatility. Lummis paid $330 for her first bitcoin back in 2013, and today it's worth around $60,000. She's bought more of it since, which means Lummis stands to gain or lose from the policy she's helping to shape. Lummis wants Wyoming to become one of the world's crypto capitals.
Another institutional hit for bitcoin–which probably had the most sustained effect–was the SEC’s refusal to approve a bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF). This would be a path for more mainstream people in finance to dabble with blockchain; it would allow investors to dip their toes in bitcoin without owning the actual asset. Not only that, but it would make bitcoin available on the most prominent financial markets. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), however, has yet to allow such a fund to exist–mostly because it is unable to monitor crypto-transactions in order to avoid market manipulation.

This lack of regulation means its transaction costs are less - making it an attractive tool or investment for people to move digital money around the world.
Even after falling back from its latest all-time high price, Bitcoin’s current price still represents a big upswing from the low $40,000 range seen in September.

Liquidity measures how easy (or difficult) it is to swap one asset for another. Traders want to be able to convert one asset for another asset while having a minimal impact on the price. The more illiquid an asset is, the harder it will be to trade it without causing a major price change. Therefore, liquidity is an extremely important factor to consider before deciding where to trade.
