Thanks @SimonettiLauren for having me on @FoxBusiness today to talk about regulatory updates for crypto in DC!

This week, we’re looking at SDG 4: Quality Education. 💡 Around the world, millions of children still lack access to affordable, high-quality education. Funding shortages, economic instability, and corruption limit opportunities and deepen inequality. ⚡️ Bitcoin empowers

Tomorrow, BPI Co-President @grant_mccarty joins the DC Fintech Summit to discuss the evolving landscape of digital asset policy. He’ll speak on the first panel of the day: Capitol Hill Power Plays & Policy Battles.

“Bitcoin is censorship-resistant by design, but bitcoin companies still rely on banks — and they should have fair, risk-based access to financial rails.” Insight from BPI co-president @grant_mccarty on the CFPB’s approach during the government shutdown.

Open Letter to Members of the United States Senate on the Proposed DeFi Framework and the Need to Preserve Developer Protections from CLARITY.

What do these two rooms have in common? And why should you care? Both of these committees are debating your right to self custody your #Bitcoin and whether software developers deserve the right to build tools without fear of reprisal. So if these freedoms are important to you,

What happens when OFAC enforces sanctions on Bitcoin miners? @RebelEconProf breaks down how both large-scale and individual miners might respond.

This week, we’re looking at SDG 3: Good Health & Well-Being. 💡 Billions face barriers to healthcare access, while fragile health systems often struggle with funding gaps, corruption, and lack of transparency. Crises and inflation further weaken outcomes for the most vulnerable.

Energy abundance faces a broken promise: we can generate power, but we can't fairly deliver it. Texas is spending $10B to socialize expenses that should follow impact. Our latest: Energy Abundance Isn't About Generation—It's About Transmission.
