About this episode
Grant McCarty is the Co-President of the Bitcoin Policy Institute.
In this episode, we discuss the state of Bitcoin policy in Washington DC, how the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve went from a fringe idea to a real legislative proposal, and why the next 18 months could define Bitcoin’s regulatory future in the United States.
We also get into the stablecoin and market structure bills currently moving through Congress, how internal dysfunction could derail progress, and why executive orders aren't enough. Finally, we talk about codifying Bitcoin into law and the quiet support from lawmakers across the aisle.
