The United States is recognized as the undisputed leader of global innovation, excelling in technology, agriculture, and finance.
This leadership is not enforced through a mandate on adopting specific values, but rather by allowing innovators to operate without excessive government interference or regulatory burdens. These principles extend beyond party lines; they embody the core American ethos.
Cryptocurrency illustrates this concept effectively. It grants individuals control over their financial futures, promoting economic freedom and enabling all Americans, regardless of their background, access to essential tools for success. The potential of cryptocurrency lies in redistributing power away from centralized financial institutions back to the populace.
Understanding this transformative potential, we have established the Congressional Crypto Caucus—a cooperative, nonpartisan group of Congress members committed to the shared promise of cryptocurrency technology. This initiative aims to unify members from various regions and political ideologies, focusing on advancing critical policies within Congress and forging strong relationships within the crypto sector.
Beyond just a discussion forum, the Crypto Caucus is devoted to concrete achievements for the American people. Our caucus will be poised to act when significant votes or issues emerge.
As the chairpersons, we are committed to maintaining a principled policy agenda that reflects the unique decentralized nature of digital assets. We aim to create an environment conducive to open, permissionless, and private innovation while curtailing efforts for centralized control. Our mission includes promoting policies that enable every American to engage in the digital economy.
With a growing number of citizens entering the digital marketplace, we will advocate for policy measures that harmonize consumer protection with innovation. Our priority is to support straightforward and transparent regulations that enhance consumer safety, promote financial literacy, and widen access to innovative financial solutions. By achieving this equilibrium, our caucus can help millions of Americans safely utilize these tools while championing policies that drive innovation in the U.S.
For far too long, innovators have faced challenges navigating the convoluted regulatory landscape in the United States. As we embark on our journey with the caucus, we will advocate for a balanced regulatory framework offering legal clarity while nurturing an environment for American creativity to thrive. We do not seek a relaxation of regulations but rather a thoughtful approach—guidelines that protect consumers without pushing entrepreneurs abroad.
As nations globally adopt policies that embrace the transformative promise of crypto technology, the United States cannot afford to lag behind. We will strive for a cohesive government strategy in digital asset policymaking to unlock the future of open and progressive innovation in the U.S. Our caucus is dedicated to supporting initiatives that ensure the United States remains the prime destination for building, investing, and innovating in the realm of digital assets.
This moment is crucial for the United States, as this groundbreaking technology signifies a fundamental rethinking of finance. As leaders of the Congressional Crypto Caucus, we encourage our colleagues to join us in capitalizing on this opportunity. Together, as a bipartisan coalition, we will ensure the United States plays not just a role but leads in the evolution of finance.
