Blockchain isn't waiting for permission—and neither should Washington.

The Regulatory Tipping Point

As Bitcoin flirts with new highs and DeFi protocols eat traditional finance's lunch, lawmakers face a simple choice: adapt or become irrelevant.

Future-Proof or Fail

Smart contracts don't need senators, but clear rules could prevent another $100B 'innovation' crash. Meanwhile, Wall Street banks quietly lobby against the very transparency blockchain provides.

One thing's certain: the market won't pause for political theater. The question is whether Congress will build guardrails—or just scrape themselves off the highway later.
