U.S. Blockchain and Fintech Roundup: Upping the Ante for Innovation in 2025

In a lively conversation, Representative Giovanni Capriglione and Arry Yu provided engaging insights into innovative moves predicted for the American blockchain and fintech sectors in 2025.

The pair discussed the formation and growth of the U.S. Blockchain Coalition, the diverse role states play in policy development, and the increasing significance of digital assets. Yu focused on fostering open dialogue between states to propel legislative evolution, while Capriglione championed the importance of forward-thinking Texas in the innovation space.

Blockchain Collation: A Journey of Collaboration and Progress

 Yu gave a brief account of the U.S. Blockchain Coalition's journey since its formation in May 2021. Catering to a vast membership spanning almost 50 states, U.S. territories like Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, and even parts of Canada, the Coalition centers on community coordination and insightful thought leadership. Notably, policy implementation depends on each state's familiarity and readiness to accept digital asset policies.

The State's Role in Fintech: Banking on Innovation

Both Capriglione and Yu discussed the financial areas generally covered by states, compared to those addressed at the federal level. With money transmission and payments usually falling within state jurisdiction, the rise of modern elements like stablecoins presents new challenges and opportunities for states in the upcoming legislative season. The completion of laws like the UCC Article 12 will likely feature prominently on many state's legislative agendas.

Ushering in the Future, State by State

The 2025 legislative cycle promises to be exciting, with an array of innovative proposals predicted. They range from fresh additions like decentralized autonomous organizations (DAO) defense legislation to tweaking existing laws around AI and cybersecurity. The engagement of private and public sectors is vital to ensure that these technological advancements serve the wider community beneficially.
