Click to download audio version On this episode of the Bitcoin Magazine
Podcast, host Christian Keroles sits down with Congressman Warren
Davidson of Ohio! Congressman Davidson burst into the Bitcoin
scene in 2019 when in a congressional hearing he mentioned the difference
between Bitcoin and “shitcoins” officially putting the term Shitcoin in the
official congressional record. Warren has a history in the military and then as
an entrepreneur which has greatly shaped his world view and his understanding of
the current fiat monetary and banking system. Congressman Davidson recognizes
the importance of sound money in a free society and why Bitcoin is well aligned
with American values. Congressman Davidson is on the financial services
committee in congress and is working hard to create more regulatory
clarity for crypto in general in an effort to make America as competitive
as possible for Bitcoin businesses to thrive. Congressman Davidson is
acutely aware of how difficult it is today for a Bitcoin business to operate in
the United States because of the lack of clarity and the purposely negligent
attitude from the SEC regarding a Bitcoin ETF. Davidson is the coauthor of the
Token Taxonomy Act which is supposed to bring an enormous amount of clarity and
recognition of crypto to the US legal system. The act is still in early stages
and Warren is fighting to get it the attention that it deserves. Please enjoy
this wide ranging and fascinating conversation with Congressman Warren
Davidson.
