Episode Details

The dust is settling after the Senate Banking Committee pulled a crucial vote on a key piece of crypto legislation last week. This week, we take the pulse of industry leaders to see where things stand, what went wrong, and when — if ever — the bill could move forward.

First up, we’re joined by Blockchain Association CEO Summer Mersinger to get her take on the Senate Agriculture Committee — the other committee writing crypto rules — as it releases new legislative text ahead of its own vote next week.

We’ll also hear from a16z general counsel Miles Jennings on the firm’s view of the process, and why founder Chris Dixon publicly backed pushing the Clarity Act through Senate Banking even as Coinbase pulled its support.

Finally, we wrap with Gabe Dinari, CEO of tokenization platform Dinari, on what all of this means for markets and real-world asset adoption.
