The 92 page Democratic Party platform document was released today outlining the Kamala Harris agenda.

Not a single mention of crypto.

Not. Even. A. Word. After years of hostility. 

No way to spin it - this feels like spit on the face.

To be clear, I don't think Ryan Selkis is the way. Crypto needs a big-tent, open dialog, convert the cynics approach.

But think at some point you need to call it what it is. Kamala Harris is showing no evidence of changing the Biden administrations anti-crypto position if she wins. There's now been ample time to extend an olive branch - she hasn't. This is the wrong side of history.

And no, we do not deserve to be hated by normies. And we are not "damn lucky" the platform didn't call for a ban. Let's have some respect for our constitutional rights.

I refuse to let criminals like SBF define this industry. We have vitaliks, and brian armstrongs, and satoshis, and coincenters. Crypto is a freedom technology - a net good for the world, and I'm proud to be here.

I'm not sure I see it that way. That fact that they didn't say anything positive or negative about crypto, despite it looking like a giant scam to everyone not directly involved, is a win. If we want politicians to be more friendly to crypto, then maybe let's stop making people like Ryan Selkis the face of the industry. We deserve to be hated by normies, and we're damn lucky the platform didn't call for a ban on cryptocurrencies.

Who cares? Why would any of us want to put the future of crypto at the feet of politicians?

I'm not in the loop - but another way to see it is that they're not saying anything negative, like in the past?

Disappointing maybe but not surprising. 

Surprising is the doc referring to Biden's "second term" something like 20 times even though he is no longer actually running for a second term.

No Ryan, be patience and onboard more people. Also don’t forget to @ your local and state representative about crypto reform
