We brought on our first United States senator, Sen. Toomey. He's a senator from Pennsylvania, a ranking member of the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs committees. He's also crypto-friendly.

And finally, what you can do to impact our government's view on crypto. ------ Infura | Join the New Decentralized Infrastructure Network www.bankless.cc/infura
