It was great to join the inaugural CFTC Innovation Advisory Committee (a group I've called "the Olympic roster of crypto.") But for a “crypto” gathering, there were a LOT of TradFi players in the room like Nasdaq, CME Group, Cboe, OCC, NYSE, The DTCC (alphabet soup!)

Everyone was in agreement. Rules written for a different era aren’t good enough. Not for consumers. Not for business. Not for innovation.

I made this case in an open letter to Congress back in 2019. Seven years later, we STILL need clear rules…. Thanks to the Trump administration, appointees like Mike Selig, and a myriad of bold leaders in Congress, we’ve never been closer. 🚀
