[Eleanor Furlong @EleanorFurlong2]

In Q4 2021 I was shocked leading lawyers discouraged me from working in Crypto, stating Crypto is a ponzi scheme...

Thus, I'm very pleased to see the Law Society's recent publication bringing legal & crypto experts together.

Crypto is here to stay.

What a week for #Crypto!

- @Microsoft and @Activision merge in a #Metaverse play.
- @Meta plans NFT integration on @instagram.
- @Twitter adds NFT verification.
- @Google finally builds a blockchain division.

Only 3 weeks in & it's clear 2022 is a pivotal year for #web3

Sir Geoffrey Vos (Master of the Rolls) has hit the nail on the head - it's time for the legal and all other sectors to wake up to #Crypto and prepare themselves for the #Metaverse

Evolve or go extinct.

The #AnimalWelfare Bill has passed through parliament, raising the maximum jail sentence for #AnimalCruelty from six months to 5 years.

Great progress but 5 years still seems too short for some of the suffering our furry friends are subject to ..

The House just voted 321-101 to pass the #SAFEBanking Act, which I cosponsored, so #cannabis businesses operating legally under state law can use federally insured banks. It's safer and more transparent.
