During this much-hyped mid-July spectacle, the House plans to wrangle with questions so fiendishly complex that even Satoshi Nakamoto would probably call for an intermission.

Erebor does not tremble beneath the weight of gold nor dwarvish curses, but sighs under the longing of Silicon Valley’s prodigal startups and crypto acolytes—lost and wandering since the sudden collapse of SVB (which invested more in vibes than liquidity, apparently) left every salaryman and coder clutching empty pockets and their last LaCroix.
