About this episode

Eleanor discusses stablecoin yield, midterm elections, and the Crypto Clarity Act with Chairman French Hill and Rep. William Timmons.

Eleanor recently spoke to Chairman French Hill & Rep. William Timmons in Nashville at the Digital Assets and Emerging Tech Policy Summit. In this conversation, we discuss why blockchain should be a core learning curriculum alongside AI and cybersecurity, the ongoing Senate debate over stablecoin yield, why Senate due diligence is normal, how stablecoins will be transitional in the U.S., and bringing crypto payment firms under OCC, FDIC, and Fed oversight. With the 2026 midterms approaching and crypto PAC money ramping up, Rep. Timmons adds that anti-crypto politics are increasingly ill-advised, PAC spending is focused on securing clear rules, and the U.S. must pass market-structure legislation.
