July is shaping up to be quite a month. What better way to celebrate our nation’s 250th than by cementing American leadership in global financial markets for decades to come? 🇺🇸
Senator Tim Scott@SenatorTimScott

I agree with @LeaderJohnThune: The Senate should vote on crypto market structure legislation in July. @BankingGOP advanced a bipartisan bill that would deliver clear rules of the road, protect consumers, and keep innovation in America. It’s time to deliver for the American people.

the ‘ghost kitchen’ era of the internet is coming very soon we’re going to see lots of websites and products that are built only for agents, without a human in the loop this is inevitably going to be the majority of traffic, and much larger than the human internet

I've said since day one that the @CFTC will be looking at perpetuals on an asset-by-asset basis. The CFTC staff’s advisory on 24/7 trading made this point abundantly clear, and we will continue to work to ensure responsible innovation is allowed to flourish in American markets. 📺👇

Perps are one of the most exciting financial innovations in decades. Crypto didn’t invent them, but crypto did prove and popularize them, one of our industry’s best contributions to global finance so far. Anti-innovation incumbents may hate them, but perps are here for good.

I’d like to personally urge every crypto podcast to invite Hunter on, ask him when he got into crypto, and why he thinks his dad’s admin was so hostile to it.

@gmoneyNFT Would you help with the crypto vote?

Around $3 Trillion dollars were laundered through banks in 2025 and they want you to believe that a bill in Congress that clearly applies AML/BSA obligations to crypto exchanges is somehow the problem. Literally nonsense.
Eleanor Terrett@EleanorTerrett

🚨NEW: JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon took aim at the Senate's crypto market structure bill today, arguing it "doesn't do anything for AML/BSA" and provides "almost no legal protections." When asked for comment, a spokesperson for @SenLummis told me: "The banks can’t deal with a bipartisan compromise on stablecoin yield and are making completely false claims about BSA/AML as a last ditch attempt to poke holes in a solid piece of legislation that protects consumers. Fear of competition always brings out an interesting side of people and that’s all this is.”

I’m collecting a list of crypto policy advocates that are drawing a hard line on not weakening the BRCA. If that’s you, reply to this thread.

Great work from @JacobRobinsonJD

What is the CLARITY Act? How does it protect the 70 million Americans who hold crypto? What does it change about how projects operate? This @LawofCodeFM podcast explains the history of U.S. digital asset regulation, why regulation-by-enforcement failed and what CLARITY solves, plus remaining steps for this to become law. Featured: @NYcryptolawyer, @milesjennings, @SH_Brennan, @KyleBligen, @millercwl, Dugan Bliss and snippets from @BillHughesDC, @thatgerald. By the end of this episode, I promise you'll be in the 99th percentile for understanding the CLARITY Act, regardless of whether you're a lawyer, builder or operator.

This is foundational. We’ve been clear: the right to build is non-negotiable. Protecting software developers is vital to ensure the U.S. remains the global hub for crypto innovation. Thank you @patrickjwitt for your leadership on this.
Patrick Witt@patrickjwitt

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.

Yesterday marked 2 years as GC at @Sei_Labs. In that time we've grown the team, gone on some crazy quests (like the 23andMe acquisition), built a foothold in the US with the @Sei_FND, launched @CryptoAmerica_ with my incredible cohosts @jacqmelinek and @EleanorTerrett, taken an active voice on regulation and policy through the @BlockchainAssn and @DigitalChamber, opened a New York office, and built our way to one of the fastest EVM L1s in production, the @SeiNetwork. Incredibly excited for what the future holds.

Reshoring “true” crypto perpetual futures in the US is a key piece of the @CFTC’s innovation policy agenda. We are hard at work to get this done soon. @blockworksDAS
