Big policy moment in Washington, DC. Yesterday’s Solana Policy Institute Summit brought together the SEC, CFTC, Congress, Wall Street, the digital asset ecosystem and The White House one day before the scheduled CLARITY Act vote. My biggest takeaway: the conversation is shifting from whether digital assets belong in the U.S. financial system to how we build the rules and infrastructure for what comes next. A lot of people have worked toward this moment for years: members of Congress, staffers on both sides of the aisle, policy groups, advocates, millions of crypto users and builders across the country. Congrats to @KristinSmith, Miller Whitehouse Levine, Rachel Horn and the entire @SolanaInstitute team on a successful event. Now all eyes on the CLARITY Act! – at Washington, DC

Had a great time moderating roundtable with @RepRitchie. We had local founders, students and community leaders to talk about all things Clarity Act, innovation, jobs, digital assets, modern finance and entrepreneurship in and for the Bronx.
On the Block hit the Bronx 🛡️ A real conversation with Congressman @RepRitchie and a room full of New Yorkers about cutting costs, opening access to capital, and helping local businesses grow. Thanks to everyone who pulled up a chair. A Stand With Crypto Community Roundtable.

Back on Capitol Hill alongside 21 Stand With Crypto Chapter Presidents, founders and advocates from New York, Michigan, Georgia, North Dakota, South Dakota, Oklahoma, Texas, Nevada, Arizona, Virginia and California. We met with Senate offices to share directly why our community is advocating for the CLARITY Act and federal digital asset market structure legislation. This work has always been expanding economic opportunity, upgrading finance and making sure the people building and using new financial technology have a voice in Washington. – at Washington, DC

Great time at Fintech Summit Americas & Token Americas in Mexico City. Joined the panel “Digital Asset Regulation: Where Are We Really?” to discuss how we at @RayoCapital see Mexico, the U.S., and global markets are shaping the next phase of financial regulation. Key takeaways: • Regulatory clarity = competitive advantage. Capital flows to strong institutions + clear rules. • Mexico/LATAM shouldn’t copy the U.S./Europe, they can build frameworks inspired by GENIUS, MiCA, CLARITY but tailored to local markets. • Banks, fintechs & digital assets are converging and blockchain rails are being used to move value more efficiently. • Stablecoins, tokenization, digital identity & AI will define modern financial infrastructure. Great discussion with Etienne Luquet at @RappiMexico & @fintechmx, Pepe Fernández at BlueMint, Yazareth Sánchez at Loxical & Pedro Leyva at GCP. Seguimos adelante 🇲🇽🇺🇸

La conversación sobre activos digitales ya no es solo tecnología. También es sobre mercados de capitales, regulación y competitividad. Compartí mi perspectiva con Johny Fernandez en Pulso Del Mercado en el New York Stock Exchange sobre el CLARITY Act y por qué reglas claras son importantes para inversionistas, builders e instituciones. Mira la entrevista completa: terminal.fintech.tv/fintecht… – at Manhattan, NY

The CLARITY Act remains stuck in the Senate, and the delay matters beyond Washington. I joined @FINTECHTVglobal at the New York Stock Exchange earlier this week to discuss the roadblocks, and what the lack of clear U.S. market structure means for investors, builders, and institutions in the United States. The central issue is no longer whether digital assets need rules. It is whether Congress can deliver a durable, bipartisan framework before the legislative window closes. Watch the full interview for additional context on where the Clarity Act stands: lnkd.in/gK5spgaG – at Manhattan, NY
