I am humbled to announce that I am joining Chia Network, a layer 1 public blockchain, as Chief Legal Officer. I am also a crypto skeptic. These are not mutually exclusive statements. I’ve always believed that there was a place for blockchain in our world…

Building a new asset class, surrounding yourself with intelligent people, and having fun at work. Who says you can't work harder and smarter? @permutocapital @chia_project embodies both. @hoffmang @trenttmartensen @grabom @ChrisMcMillan_

CIRCLE vs. CHIA Why technical details *should* matter to investors--as captured in S-1 glossaries. Comparing @Circle public filing (sec.gov/Archives/edgar…) to @chia_project confidential filing but now available on the crypto task force site (sec.gov/files/memo-chi…) 🧵below:

Someone forgot @chia_project which is more decentralized than one if not both based on node count and Nakamoto Coefficient. And is also programmable, etc.

There exist only two major crypto assets that can "claim" to be decentralized and credibly neutral. BTC and ETH But only one of them: - has revenue - has native DeFi - powers an onchain economy I think that all of these properties make ETH a better Store of Value longterm. So

I love reading the @SECGov crypto task force meeting agendas because you can see who is principled and who is not. Pretty disheartened to see @paradigm defending MEV when it's pretty clear to everyone that MEV is 1) a bad technical architecture choice and 2) enables fraud.

And @chia_project's own @hoffmang summarizing his 2nd mainnet anniversary speech in short form last night to the #Chia community: it's really about what you will do to build the next generation of innovation and adoption on the Chia blockchain.🥳

Who's that good looking chief legal officer? 😎 Joking aside, @DigitalChamber dropped more videos from the DC Blockchain Summit, including the session "Battle of the Blockchains" which had various L1 leaders talking about the future of regulation: bit.ly/DCB25Clips

I'm glad @hoffmang was there to represent. CLOs are terrific but CEOs are even better. 💪 Big thanks to @DigitalChamber for helping our industry engage with @BoHines, the SEC crypto task force, and so many others in Washington.

At least folks in industry showing up to @SECGov crypto task force stating what they truly believe. Here's @Cardano openly admitting that decentralization is *harmful* criteria... 🤡 So if its not helpful, what's to stop centralization? Big tech or tradfi coins? Rug pulls? 🙄

Big week in crypto policy. I’m pleased that the House passed #FIT21 in a bipartisan manner. @chia_project fully supported this effort, which balances the need for innovation with consumer protection to create a path forward for other crypto projects.
