I'm honored to be leading @SolanaInstitute as we work to educate policymakers on the incredible potential of decentralized networks like Solana. It's a pivotal moment for our industry, and we need clear rules to unleash the innovators building the digital economy of the future.
Solana Policy Institute@SolanaInstitute

🔆 We are excited to announce the launch of Solana Policy Institute (SPI), a new non-partisan, non-profit focused on educating policymakers on how decentralized networks like @solana are the future infrastructure of the digital economy—and why the people building on and using them need legal certainty to flourish. 🧵👇

Did you know? Only 19% of crypto developers are located in the U.S. — down 51% in recent years. In order to bring those builders back and make the U.S. the crypto capital of the world, software developer protections are essential. With input from the crypto community and law enforcement organizations, we have worked with @SenLummis on a compromise that we believe addresses Senator Grassley’s concerns. This issue should be resolved very soon.
Coin Bureau@coinbureau

🚨 CLARITY ACT NEGOTIATIONS NOW CENTER ON SECTION 1960 Senator Chuck Grassley is expected to weigh in this week on proposed changes to Section 1960, a critical provision that would deny legal safe harbor protections to software developers who knowingly facilitate money laundering. The debate has become one of the final sticking points in Clarity Act negotiations, as lawmakers push to ensure DeFi protections do not limit the government’s ability to police illicit crypto activity ahead of a potential Senate markup.

We’re eagerly awaiting the announcement of a markup date for CLARITY. Next week, I’ll break down the latest with Senator @Berniemoreno on stage at @SolanaEvents Accelerate. A lot could happen between now and then 👀 Hope you can join us for this conversation! solana.com/accelerate/mia…

🚨NEW: @SenThomTillis (R-NC) says he’s ready to push the Clarity Act forward to a markup. “I’m going to ask the chair to move forward with scheduling a markup when we get back… I think we’ve made a lot of progress… and it’s time to get it before the committee to move it forward,” Tillis told my inimitable friend and former colleague @ChaseWilliams_ in a reporter gaggle on Capitol Hill this morning following the Warsh vote. Tillis went on to say most bank concerns on stablecoin yield have been heard and addressed, adding that others are welcome to “come and work in good faith.” On timing: Tillis hopes to release legislative text on stablecoin yield 4–5 days before a markup after stakeholders get a preview. On software developers and how law enforcement views the potential impact on enforcement under the 1960 criminal statute, a new flag Tillis raised this week, he pointed to @SenLummis’ approach, saying he’s “generally in support” of where the bill stands.

ICBA is doing its members a huge disservice over this issue. As communicated to their leadership ad nauseam, an outright prohibition on stablecoins rewards is dead on arrival. Were ICBA to succeed in defeating CLARITY over this issue (doubtful), their “reward” would be that GENIUS controls. Which, if ICBA’s argument is to be believed, would be catastrophic to their members. As they say: play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Instead of committing continued lobbying malpractice, ICBA should be enthusiastically supporting the compromise that Senators Tillis and Alsobrooks have reached, which addresses the issue of idle yield head-on in a way that can actually become law.

As @HesterPeirce recently said, "Recent history is littered with a patchwork of no-action letters and enforcement actions that have contorted the term “broker” beyond recognition," and called for "a more permanent regulatory approach that addresses the broker definition in light of current market circumstances." Same, Commissioner Peirce, same.
DeFi Education Fund@fund_defi

The SEC took an important step on UIs - and now we’re asking them to lock it in. On April 13, 2026, the SEC published a staff statement with a thoughtful, practical approach for distinguishing non-custodial user interfaces from activities that constitute broker-dealer activity. DEF and 35 industry leaders are now requesting the SEC formalize the principles in the statement in notice-and-comment rulemaking, so we have durable regulatory clarity that lasts.

This isn't an age verification bill. This is device level KYC. Every operating system would need proof of age which means gov ID + photo for every device connected to the internet. The lazy default implementation? Gov ID + selfie to Persona. The same KYC Discord and Anthropic just rolled out (yep, we're already moving to KYC for AI). This makes one giant honeypot for hackers and is a bow-wrapped gift to the corporate surveillance machine (and U.S gov surveillance who harvest data from them). There's no technical reason to build it this way. We already have zero-knowledge age verification that works at scale, @zkpassport lets you prove you're over 18 without revealing who you are. Data never leaves the device. The tech exists. But that's not the worst part. If every device is gated by gov ID, then revoking the ID revokes digital existence. Revoke passport = digital excommunication. Actually insane we have legislators considering this.
The Lunduke Journal@LundukeJournal

The full text for HR 8250, the proposed Federal law which would require all Operating Systems to implement Age Verification, has just been made publicly available. It is short, poorly written, clearly not at all thought out, and almost entirely devoid of specifics. Some key points: - The bill does not specify how age verification would work at all. It states that the Federal Trade Commission would have 180 days to specify the exact mechanism and requirements for Age Verification within the Operating Systems. - The Federal Trade Commission would also specify data storage protection requirements as well as requirements for how the Operating System must provide access to collected user data. - This bill would apply to ALL Operating Systems. Everything from Windows to Linux to embedded systems. Yes, even to a smart refrigerator. The “Operating System” definition is incredibly broad. - The law will be considered in effect 1 year from the date it is enacted. - Violations of the law will be handled under the Federal Trade Commission Act. - It is given the “Short Title” of “Parents Decide Act”. congress.gov/bill/119th-con…

🚨 Today, the Government will try to pass eye-watering internet restrictions from ID checks, to browsing time limits and even curfews "to protect children" - but they actually affect every single one of us. I explain why for @Telegraph today ⬇️ telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/04/1…

A new national law has been introduced to require all Operating Systems to have mandatory Age Verification. House Resolution 8250 : “To require operating system providers to verify the age of any user of an operating system, and for other purposes.” The Federal bill was introduced by Rep. Josh Gottheimer, Democrat from New Jersey. And is co-sponsored by Elise M. Stefanik, Republican from New York. The full text of the bill has not yet been made publicly available (but is expected shortly). congress.gov/bill/119th-con…

after four long years, last week was my final one @SolanaFndn. along the way, i've been witness to the growth of one of the strongest ecosystems in all of technology (let alone crypto) and i'm deeply appreciative of having played a small part in where @solana is today there are too many stories to recount and too many people to thank so i won't begin to try, but i'm forever a fan of the entire Solana ecosystem and always hope to count myself as part of the family as for what's next: i seek to fulfill a decade-long vision quest to build the last company i ever work for with my friend @nkumar23. across both of our many interdisciplinary experiences throughout our careers, we've seen the value of being glue, of mixing-and-matching skillsets, and of building powerhouse teams to tackle hairy problems. this all-around mindset is embodied by the rare achievement of getting a 5x5 in basketball: at least five points, assists, rebounds, steals and blocks in a single game. only 15 players have done it, ever. we will take this approach to heart with the next step of our journey. this creative technology lab slash product studio slash members collective will have both highly experimental and entirely practical outputs, which we'll explore with software, writing, events, & art. we'd love for you to follow along as we figure it out: 5x5.studio // @5x5_collective

Protecting software developers is one of the most important aspects of this bill. It’s a core pillar of making the US the crypto capital of the world. Criminalizing code does nothing but drive innovation offshore.

A rift between crypto firms and law enforcement is threatening the crypto market structure bill that Republicans are hoping to advance soon after Congress returns next week. @Jasper_Goodman politico.com/news/2026/04/0…

What we heard from the government at today's hearing was truly alarming. Their theory is so expansive. Once criminals use a noncustodial tool at sufficient (though unspecified) scale, even otherwise lawful activity can be recast as illegitimate. At that point, a developer's every act to support software related to that tool can be treated as furthering criminal activity. This is why legal protections for developers need to be written into law.
Amanda Tuminelli@amandatums

Leaving the hearing on @rstormsf's motion for acquittal, the only thing that was clear to me is that the government still does not understand the tech at issue. The lack of nuance, the misrepresentations about how a UI functions, and the equivocation between different technologies is really disheartening at this point in the case. The arguments SDNY advanced at this hearing on the application of Section 1960 are limitless and dangerous for all software developers. It was good to see the judge digging in and asking detailed questions, but there is no way to predict how she will rule on Storm's motion. Given that she was focused on dates for retrial at end of 2026, I think we can expect to see the case continue.
