vote for the bill. Crypto needs regulation now, not some time in future when Democrats are in control. I’m assuming they feel they can get something acceptable, if not perfect.

Robbing thr treasury. Giving taxpayer real money for fantasy money.

Every legislator approving this should be made to invest half their family's life savings/net worth in the very same crypto to show their confidence in it.
