As many of you have seen, the first Congressional hearing on digital assets occurred last week, inviting six of the largest stateside blockchain CEOs to testify and answer questions about their platforms and visions for the space. Many members of Congress came in having met with the CEOS and were enthusiastic about blockchain tech, but at least as many were hoping to learn more. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez came in with a pointed line of questioning, but, by and large, it was a panel more about highlighting the important issues related to inflation, Web 3, consensus mechanism energy efficiency, and topics that have been batted around but never discussed in Congress with this degree of formality. The six crypto representatives were polished and are generally perceived to have done well at answering the questions of Congress well, even skillfully simplifying technical topics into digestible tidbits.
