The reason the U.S. has been the only real developed economy/polity to try and truly fight the existence of crypto seems downstream of three separate things:
- We have the US dollar, so stablecoins are less immediately paradigm shifting 
- less technocratic, more political policy creation
- 2008 crisis emerged from US

Law & Policy

Before breaking for the Memorial Day recess, lawmakers packed in a flurry of crypto-related activity—from Senate movement on GENIUS to House action on debanking and a hearing with SEC Chair Paul Atkins.

Little known secret: Senators track the calls that come into their office every day from their constituents on each issue. It’s treated as proof of how their states care about that issue. 

If you’re in crypto, you should take 5 minutes Monday to call your senators.  Don’t email, call like a boomer. https://www.senate.gov/general/resources/pdf/senators_phone_list.pdf

Most important senators to ping (imo): 
Warnock (D-GA)
Cantwell (D-WA)
Cortez-Masto (D-NV)
King (I-ME)

I know Trump's crypto scams can seem hard to understand. So I went the Senate floor to break down the most outrageous one. 

A foreign government is investing $2 billion in Trump's coin to get favorable treatment from the Administration. A wild corruption. 

Here's how it works. https://t.co/pxLSlZH2QN

Most folks I know likely think I’m delulu but just don’t wanna start beef with me

I talk to some ppl willing to listen but I don’t even try to onboard normies

I don't tell anyone irl that I'm into crypto.

Crypto really is low status and trashy. It has afforded me a lot of opportunity but it’s also embarrassing and not something I am excited to tell people about
