With President Biden’s decision not to seek reelection and his subsequent endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris, the political landscape has changed entirely overnight. Looking at a potential Harris administration could mean a clean slate for crypto regulation and reshape the United States crypto policy to foster economic justice and innovation leadership. This week, episode 219 of the Tech Intersect™ Podcast continues the Electing Crypto 2024 series- exploring whether a Harris administration could usher in a clean slate for crypto regulation.

As we approach the 2024 presidential election, it is important to understand how crypto, while deeply political, isn’t actually partisan. Despite this, we are seeing the Republican and Democratic candidates taking different and somewhat concerning stances on the issue that threaten to undermine the very freedoms that crypto promises. Now more than ever, it is crucial that we are advocating for regulatory clarity and education to ensure that crypto remains accessible, regardless of the outcome of the election. This week, episode 218 of the Tech Intersect™ Podcast is about electing crypto in 2024- it's political, not partisan. 

POWERED BY DIGITALMONEYDEMYSTIFIED.COM – Your trusted guide to separate crypto fact from fiction. By now wherever books are sold and on Amazon.

Topics I go over in this episode include:

• Crypto is inherently political, however, it is not a partisan issue despite the Republican and Democratic parties taking different positions.
• The politicization of crypto can hinder its broader acceptance and put it further behind in advancements and opportunities. 
• Clear and inclusive regulation is necessary to protect investors and foster innovation as we advance in the Web3 world. 
• The implications that Project 2025 or Agenda 2047 poses on the very freedoms and opportunities that crypto promises.

When hearing the word “volatility” we automatically tend to think of the negative implications. But volatility isn’t always bad and it sure isn’t unique to crypto. Every market has its ups and downs, especially in the beginning so why would we expect crypto to be any different? Dr. Hans Boateng joins me today as we flip the script on this narrative and address common questions and misconceptions about the crypto market and its fluctuations. This week, episode 213 of the Tech Intersect™ Podcast is about demystifying crypto volatility!
