It would be a historic mistake to slap Bitcoin miners with a 30% tax that is a de facto ban.
The U.S. is a global leader in innovation, let's keep it that way.

Earlier this year, I joined @JDVance1 and my colleagues in calling out the SEC’s abuse of power. While this news is an encouraging first step, much more must be done to restore the SEC's accountability and ensure it drops its groundless hostility to crypto innovation. pic.twitter.com/AAsO7UKTMzx.com/business/statu…
I joined @SquawkCNBC to discuss the details of my brand new stablecoin legislation.
The bill will cultivate innovation and allow the rapidly growing crypto asset industry to continue to gain a foothold in the U.S. while ensuring there are adequate consumers protections. pic.twitter.com/RNFb0CCztf
I hope McBath is planning for life after politics - the voters of the 6th Congressional district of GA gonna' send her packing. Perhaps she stashed some of the $2 million stolen bucks that Sam "the Crypto-Creep" Bankman-Fried, aka "Sammy the Salami" donated to her in '22? twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Happy Halving!
The 'Halving' is one of Bitcoin’s ingenious features that creates scarcity and value, in the same way that scarcity in gold creates value.
So, what exactly is the Halving? And, why is today’s extra special?
About every 4 years, the programmed amount of Bitcoin created every 10 minutes is cut in half, aka the “Halving.”
This ensures the supply is always increasing relative to the amount being created.
Supply & demand is the basis of economics and Bitcoin is no different.
Today's Halving is extra special because for the first time ever Bitcoin will become more scarce than gold.
Bitcoin continues to prove itself as a store of value and the Halving is a key reason why.
Happy Halving!
Today, Team Lummis hosted a lunch and learn to celebrate this year’s Bitcoin halving.
Thanks to @mempool for their awesome block explorer!
