Congress is taking a real first step toward crafting fair crypto tax policy in the US. Their latest crypto tax package offers relief in many areas, including for stablecoins & gas fees. However, it fails to eliminate capital gains tax on everyday bitcoin payments. A de minimis must capture small digital asset payments to provide relief people need. Why is this so important? ↓

What a week for Bitcoin, AI, and energy here in Austin, Texas. My first Texas Energy & Mining Summit was an incredible experience. Shout out to Rod, Jack, and the whole crew at Bitcoin Park for putting on an excellent program.

Bitcoin Pizza Day feels different this year. The first real-world bitcoin transaction wasn’t a mistake. It was the beginning of #bitcoin being used as money. Now, more than 15 years later, people are using bitcoin to pay, earn, save, and move money around the world everyday. Laszlo helped prove that future was possible.

Open protocols create resilience. With Proto we're working to decentralize mining by expanding access to tools for miners & builders. SV2 advances those same principles at the protocol layer. Everyone building mining infra should have a hand in making it more open & resilient

Jack Dorsey may have changed Bitcoin mining forever. Best known for founding Twitter, Jack’s hardware company Block has built one of the first modular Bitcoin miners, designed to be stacked, repaired, and serviced in workshops like this, instead of thrown away

No more someday. ₿itcoin is now. 🟠 We brought the whole Block party to @TheBitcoinConf this year: @square, @cashapp, @bitkey, and @protomining all under one roof. Buy. Spend. Secure. Power. See you next year.

That's a wrap for the @blocks team @TheBitcoinConf Safe travels (₿‿₿) @square | @cashapp | @bitkey | @protomining | @spiralbtc

@rosellabetty Thank you for stopping in to talk shop.

@YourFriendAndy @TheBitcoinConf Thank you for stopping by Andy.

Checking out the Proto Rig @protomining Full modular Bitcoin mining rig. Very cool to see this in person vs just a digital rendering. 810TH at 12,000w fully kitted out. I think this is pretty rad. What do you think?

today at @TheBitcoinConf: 2:20pm — @jack, Nakamoto stage 4:30pm — @max_guise on the future of mining hardware w/ @protomining, Energy stage after the conference: ♾ — ₿ at @blocks

@megawatthq Thanks so much for stopping by!

At last - we got to see some @protomining Rigs up close and they did not disappoint! Really enjoyed learning about Fleet and exploring their vision for mining. This was a real highlight for us today, thanks to the team 🙏
