Honored to be the premiere guest on @frankcorva’s new podcast for @BitcoinMagazine! We had a wide-ranging discussion about the coming U.S. fiscal reckoning, and how to make #bitcoin resilient to the capital controls likely in such a crisis.

Excited to announce that episode one of my new show Bitcoin Politics is now live! On the show, I’ll be having in-depth conversations about Bitcoin policy with both politicians and experts on the matter alike. On ep. 1, @Avik lays out potential political outcomes for Bitcoin.

This week, @PresidioBitcoin hosted the Bitcoin Quantum Summit (pbquantum.com). I was thrilled to be invited to attend, and wanted to write up a thread about what I learned this week. I’ll save my commentary for the end, and start with where we are, the challenges we…

Seems like every day there's more positive news about Milei's miraculous turnaround of Argentina, for ex: salaries as a % of GDP have now risen 5% points over what it was when he took office. Workers are making more b/c companies are competing to pay them. eleconomista.es/empleo/noticia…

Important point by @tyler. @Gemini, @Coinbase et al. have been campaigning for a decade+ for clear regulatory rules so that they could build lawful and compliant businesses. DC refused to create those rules, then attacked companies as unlawful. GENIUS/CLARITY helps to fix this.

Not human

Ed Feulner R.I.P. The founder of the @Heritage Foundation, and a great and good man who did much to help America win the Cold War and lead the free world. It was an honor to know him.

The GENIUS Act got signed into law today, and I look forward to working with SEC-regulated entities to integrate payment stablecoins safely into our capital markets: sec.gov/newsroom/speec…

While the U.S. enacts historic stablecoin & digital asset legislation, empowering individuals & the private sector, Russia just passed a central bank digital currency law for surveillance & censorship.

I just signed the landmark legislation passed today by House Republicans to strengthen American crypto innovation. The CLARITY Act, GENIUS Act, and Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act deliver on President Trump’s vision to make crypto a core pillar of the U.S. economy and ensure…

And this is why making some changes to who is invited to the White House for press briefings was a great idea. The newbies ask interesting questions that big news organizations wouldn’t. @frankcorva

Today history was made. CLARITY passes the House with an even greater bipartisan majority than FIT21. It's past time for market structure rules that end the senseless turf war between the SEC and CFTC. Now the Senate needs to quickly follow suit and meet the White House's 9/30…

This sounds like @HesterPeirce’s regulatory sandbox to me…very encouraging.

You can critique the details, but undeniably the crypto legislation that was just passed is historic and everyone involved deserves immense respect for pushing the ball forward. Hard fought victory. Congratulations 🎉 🍾

Today we publish a Bitcoin Improvement Proposal addressing incentive & safety issues for migrating the ecosystem to post quantum cryptography. BIP timeframes are relative to a future point at which quantum computers are deemed a significant threat. github.com/jlopp/bips/blo…

Don't look now, but the fastest-growing economy in Latin America is...@JMilei's Argentina. batimes.com.ar/news/economy/w…

This is as crisp and as undeniable a statement of Thatcherism and its success as the gloomiest economist could wish for. If you are a Man of Destiny seeking to revive a national economy, this is a perfect and comprehensive guidebook. You will need little else except nerve.

David Gergen, consummate political insider, dies at 83. A gentleman and a scholar. R.I.P. wapo.st/3TxOqNZ

The Detroit @tigers have the best record in the majors? What is happening!!
