About this episode

Dr. Tonya M. Evans discusses the reshaping of U.S. crypto policy by a Democratic coalition.

Check out this #throwback episode of Confidently Crypto from 4.20.26! The crypto bros want the mic. The real story is someone else holding it. Dr. Tonya M. Evans takes you inside the unlikely Democratic coalition reshaping U.S. crypto policy, led by Senator Angela Alsobrooks of Maryland. A Banking Committee member, original GENIUS Act co-sponsor, and the lead Democrat who brokered the stablecoin yield compromise with Republican Senator Thom Tillis that just unlocked the market structure bill, Alsobrooks has built a record that centers consumer protection, community banks, and communities traditional finance has historically left behind.
