DeFi must be protected.
Today, @BlockchainAssn and @1inch came together to host Groundwork during DC Fintech Week. Students, academics, industry, and policy pro’s all at the table.
A durable regulatory framework that protects #DeFi will come, and we must engage the next gen who will inherit and help shape its future.
#DCFintechWeek
Two of DMV’s finest 🙏💕
Had the pleasure of sitting next to @HesterPeirce at last night’s Cypherpunk Policy Dinner.
There are few people in public service I’ve come to appreciate more. I’ll always remember her support for our industry, her thoughtfulness toward me, and the kindness she showed @LauraSpuller during their time together at the SEC.
For all of that, I remain deeply grateful.

What do we talk about when we talk about privacy? Thrilled to have a full house for @chainlink's @kkirkbos, @0xPredicate's @pumpernikhil, and Julie Lascar from @CantonNetwork's panel!

Replying to @1inch
@1inch Groundwork is in D.C. on purpose.
Seven panels and six roundtables. Speakers from Robinhood Crypto, Uniswap, Circle, Digital Asset, Fireblocks, OpenZeppelin, TRM Labs, Dune, Alchemy and Certik. Faculty from Columbia, NYU, Rutgers and George Mason.
The rules for this industry are being written here. The students who will spend their careers working under those rules are at universities across the city. Groundwork puts both in one room for an afternoon.
I’ll be leading a practical, no-assumptions introduction for attendees newer to the space. Understand what happens when you create a wallet, hold an asset and make an onchain transaction - then complete a first swap together.
📆 OCT 16
📍National Union Building
⏱️ 12:00-6:00PM

I’m excited to be speaking at @1inch Forward: Groundwork, taking place October 16 in Washington, DC, in partnership with the @BlockchainAssn
From DeFi and tokenization to AI agents, financial security, and public policy, Groundwork is bringing together the people building, teaching, and shaping the future of finance.
As the next generation prepares to inherit a rapidly evolving financial system, we need more than conversations about innovation. We need education, collaboration, and real opportunities to participate.

Our Maryland Chapter President @gilbert787 is helping Latino crypto voters register, show up, and make their vote count this November.
W3DC 🛡️ retweeted
Latino adoption belongs at the center of America’s digital asset policy.
At Fiesta DC, USA largest Latino festival, @Web3DC and @standwithcrypto brought digital asset education to Latino families.
Latin America and the Caribbean received $173.7 BILLION in remittances in 2025. Money for groceries, housing, education, and businesses. A real use case at enormous scale.
For our community, inflation, country instability, and the economic pressure of tariffs are lived realities.
Stablecoins can make these payments faster and cheaper while expanding access to the U.S. dollar.
We need to be at the forefront of shaping U.S. policy that protects families, keeps innovation here, and strengthens the dollar’s global role.
Latinos in the USA drive adoption beyond our borders, back to their home countries.
The future of finance is being built now. America needs to lead.
Help secure that future. Make your voice count in these midterms. Vote. 🗳️

DMV, you’re on notice.
The DMV is one of the most consequential places for crypto, AI and the technologies shaping what comes next.
This region has some of the most powerful founders, researchers, institutions, universities, networks and decision-makers in the country.
And we’re putting that ecosystem on display at @DCstartupweek
Speakers, sessions and major announcements dropping all week.
If you’re building in the DMV, this is your week. DCSTW.com

Cardano Native Tokens are coming to Fireblocks.
Stablecoins and tokenised RWAs on @Cardano, custodied with the same policy controls institutions already use for every other asset they hold.
Announced today by the Cardano Foundation and Fireblocks.
Cardano Native Tokens (CNTs) will be supported on @FireblocksHQ.
That means every exchange, bank, and fintech using Fireblocks will be able to custody, send, and receive CNTs with the same policy controls they already use for every other asset.
Special thanks to @emurgo_io and the Pentad as well as @IagonOfficial for helping on this journey.

Artechouse reopened their doors, and what’s inside will amaze you.
“Submerged”
Seventeen visionary digital artists created 14 immersive worlds across a massive 280-degree, 18K canvas, powered by @rendernetwork decentralized GPU infrastructure.
Decentralized technology isn’t the headline. Human creativity is.
The technology matters because it removes barriers, expands the canvas, and gives independent artists access to computing power once reserved for major studios.
The artists brought the vision.
@artechouse created the experience.
The visionary artists behind SUBMERGE:
@annibalesiconolfi
@blakekathryn + @maalavidaaa
David Ariew + Chelsea Evenstar
@fvckrender
Gavin Shapiro
Jess Wiseman @jesslwiseman
Josh Pierce @jpierce_art
Maciej Kuciara + Emily Yang @pplpleasr
MHX
Team WAI
@willselviz + Manuel Sainsily
Woosung Kang @woosung han
While you submerge, the infrastructure disappears into the background and the art completely surrounds you
