This week marked the kickoff of the @BlockchainAssn Member Listening Tour. First stop: Chicago 🇺🇸 Grateful to @colleenklein @kkirkbos @d_gerhardstein @_JonSabol @DRWTrading @CumberlandSays @jump_ @jump_pit @CMT_Digital @StarkWareLtd @BrettHarrison88 @Architect_Fi @BHDigitalAssets & @AptosLabs for sharing their priorities, challenges, & perspectives on #DigitalAssets regulation, market infrastructure, and innovation — helping shape the road ahead for our advocacy and programs.

We’re excited to announce our first keynote for the 2025 #BAPolicySummit: SEC Chairman Paul Atkins. @SECPaulSAtkins will join us this December to discuss Project Crypto and the future of digital assets. More updates on speakers coming soon—stay tuned!

Few public officials suffer more acutely from Crypto Derangement Syndrome—or have done more to drive innovation out of New York State—than @TishJames. In ’26, NY will have a chance to elect my friend @KhurramDara — a rare voice of reason with real expertise in #DigitalAssets, law, public policy & consumer protection. I spoke with @EleanorTerrett & @CryptoAmerica_ about how Khurram knows how to modernize oversight without politicizing it — exactly the balance NY needs.

Excited to meet with the BA this week in Chicago!!! Together we can advance clear policy, expand access, and help teams build on Algorand. The forever goal = accelerate adoption and strengthen the Algorand community. #Algorand @AlgoFoundation #algofam $algo

I've known @DanSpuller for years – he helped build @BlockchainAssn into the force it is today. He’s an incredibly caring colleague and friend and I’m proud to see him continue to shine in Washington.
