Since @POTUS signed my bill into law, the GENIUS Act has rapidly accelerated the modernization of our payment system. Combining the dollar’s advantages with the blockchain’s speed & efficiency will unlock tremendous benefits for U.S. innovation and economic leadership.

Sen. Cynthia Lummis on the Bitcoin Strategic Reserve as a way to address the national debt: “If you were to acquire 5% of the world’s Bitcoin and hold it for 20 years, you could cut the national debt in half.” @SenLummis joined Joe Kelly of @Unchained for a conversation on digital-asset regulation and the future of Bitcoin in the United States at BTC in DC 2025.

Crypto should not be politicized. It’s not red. It’s not blue. It’s a technology. And, like every transformative technology before it, it deserves thoughtful, bipartisan support that fosters innovation, protects consumers and ensures America leads. We have seen this before with @SenLummis and @SenGillibrand coming together for stablecoin legislation. What we need now is clarity, through bipartisan legislation like the Market Structure Bill, so builders can innovate confidently here in the United States rather than abroad. Why does this matter? Because clarity creates stability. Stability enables investment. And investment leads to innovation that ultimately creates jobs. American jobs. Unfortunately, crypto remains one of the most misunderstood technologies of our time. I recently wrote an Op-Ed for @BTCTN, titled, “You’re Thinking About Crypto All Wrong.” In it, I explained: "The confusion stems from how we categorize it. Most see crypto as a vertical industry, like banking or entertainment. In reality, it’s a horizontal platform: a foundational layer that cuts across industries, much like “digital” has over the past few decades." This distinction matters. Because when we understand crypto as a horizontal layer of innovation - rather than a niche vertical focused on no discernable or positive use case - it becomes clear that the efficiencies it brings to a broken financial system can also expand access to those historically excluded from it. The reality is that the world is becoming faster, more efficient and cheaper. Thus, we must ensure American innovation keeps pace - and that the jobs created by this transformation are built here, not elsewhere. At the same time, we must recognize that technology is changing access to new forms of liquidity. We saw this with social media democratizing communication. Now, we are witnessing it with money and value. For many, crypto provides this new access - access that our traditional financial system often denied them. Both realities can coexist: ➡️ Regulation that enables innovation and capital formation. ➡️ Regulation that ensures fairness, equality and protection. It’s not one or the other. It’s both. This balance is critical not just for the health of our economy but for the inclusivity of our financial future. When I was at @TIME, @JanellRoss wrote an incredible piece titled “Inside the World of Black Bitcoin, Where Crypto Is About Making More Than Just Money.” This piece captured a growing movement where crypto is not just about speculation, rather about empowerment and access. Leaders like @johnhopebryant have long spoken about financial inclusion through this same lens pointing to the millions of Americans who remain outside the existing financial system, not because they lack ambition, but because they lack access. Access is opportunity; and opportunity is what America has always stood for. That is why bi-partisan support matters so much. This technology already exists. The access already exists. What is missing are the guardrails that ensure innovation can flourish while people are protected as they navigate new financial frontiers. This should not be a partisan issue. And, I have seen leaders from both sides of the aisle recognize this truth. @SenatorTimScott, @SenLummis and @berniemoreno speak eloquently about it last week during the Senate Banking Committee hearing. @SenAlexPadilla, @RitchieTorres and others have also shown deep interest in this very issue as well. I am highlighting just a handful of many Republicans AND Democrats who care about this holistically. There are way more supporters on both sides than opposers. When we work together - across parties and perspectives - we can ensure the United States remains the global leader in innovation, job creation and financial inclusion. Crypto isn’t red. It isn’t blue. It’s the next great technological infrastructure layer; one that can make our systems faster, more transparent and more equitable.

Binance processed billions worth of illicit finance, including from known terrorist organizations and drug traffickers. @POTUS pardoning Binance's CEO after the company boosted President Trump's own crypto venture is a corrupt and blatant betrayal of American interests.

CZ pleaded guilty to a criminal money laundering charge and was sentenced to prison. But then he financed President Trump’s stablecoin and lobbied for a pardon. Today, he got it. If Congress does not stop this kind of corruption, it owns it.

Pardoning CZ rewards corruption. Money laundering & narcotics trafficking is condemnable, except if you're a partner in Trump family's corrupt crypto racket. It makes this Administration look like a RICO organized crime enterprise.

We cannot empower the opponents of digital assets to rewrite the rules in their favor, stifle innovation, and increase costs. Throwing up barriers would drive entrepreneurs overseas and weaken America’s leadership in financial technology. Read more: lummis.senate.gov/press-releases…

We need rules in place to protect regular investors in crypto and private equity – not a shadowy system that lines the pockets of crypto billionaires and giant private equity firms. A downturn in these markets could put our whole economy at risk.

🧵The seizure of 127,000 bitcoin underscores two urgent priorities for Congress: first, passing clear digital asset market structure legislation to ensure law enforcement can act decisively against bad actors while protecting innovation.

🧵Second, codifying how seized bitcoin is stored, returned to victims, and safeguarded for future generations. Turning criminal proceeds into assets that strengthen America’s Strategic Bitcoin Reserve shows how sound policy can turn wrongdoing into lasting national value.

Trump is purposely driving up your electric bills to cater to his big crypto, AI, and fossil fuel donors — money from your pockets to theirs. He’s also driving up your homeowners insurance, hurting property values. nytimes.com/2025/10/09/opi…

Currently, our tax code does not provide straightforward answers for many digital asset transactions, whether someone is buying a cup of coffee, donating to charity, investing, lending, mining or staking. The U.S. must not fall behind in this rapidly growing market—it should be et development.
