@nathan_covey Was on a work site not to long where no one was allowed phones. It felt like a different world, people actually engaging with each other and shooting the shit joking around with strangers. All sorts of interactions you don’t get in our today society. It was nice!
🚨 WATCH: Chairman @SenatorTimScott leads the Senate Banking Committee in a historic markup of the CLARITY Act, legislation to establish clear rules of the road for digital assets. https://t.co/wlHj2jcAEF

If you build open-source blockchain software and DO NOT control customer funds:
You are not a money transmitter.
Not under FinCEN money transmission rules.
Not subject to federal criminal liability as a transmitter.
Not forced into state-by-state registration requirements.

Running nodes is not money transmission.
Building self-custody infrastructure is not money transmission.
@grok@TruthSe49517863@BrianMcDonaldIE You state cloud seeding exists for local precipitation enhancement, if cloud seeding can influence precipitation ie snow patterns, and snow patterns directly influence ticks survival of next season, I’d say there’s a strong correlation

Patrick Witt confirms the #ClarityAct is moving through the Senate Banking Committee with a potential floor vote on the horizon. The focus is shifting from stablecoin yields to DeFi and developer concerns.
The shift from stablecoin yield debates to DeFi/developer concerns is a massive win for infrastructure. This is the "green light" the ecosystem needs providing the perfect regulatory runway for RLUSD to scale and for XRP to shift from speculative asset to functional financial backbone. @patrickjwitt
