Isn't the ban on staking in the USA supposed to be bullish for bitcoin and other proof of work crypto projects? I only heard not to stake on centralized exchanges but not the same for mining in the USA, so if you are in America you are free to fire on your Asic miners. All Hail to PoW algorithm.
I think you have got it wrong. The news was that SEC is charging against Kraken for allowing users to stake on it's exchange.
As per the US laws and regulations it isn't allowed which is why they are charging up against Kraken.
This does not mean it is a good news for bitcoin. It simply means that US citizens won't be able to stake on exchanges.
