@suna_said: How do we educate people so that these headlines from people like @JanetYellen don't alarm people?

@katie_haun: There's an entire narrative of crypto that hasn't been told which is how crypto can create economic freedom. When @brian_armstrong started

.@brian_armstrong: Economic freedom is a composite metric that positively correlates with things in society that we want like better income in the poorest 10% of people in society, increased societal happiness etc.

.@brian_armstrong: When I first read the #btc white paper, I immediately thought this was a technology that could enable economic freedom. It allows people to own their own money, today it allows people to take out loans to start businesses.

.@brian_armstrong: There are two contingents of regulators – one end is extremely optimistic about crypto and have even left government to work in crypto. The other contingent is solely looking at the 1% of bad actors who are using crypto for illicit activity.

.@brian_armstrong: crypto is no worse than the dollar in terms of illict activity.

.@terrycrews: I think crypto is the future.

.@terrycrews: I was first convinced when I was at a convention in Milan and I had fees I needed to pay, more than I could withdraw from an ATM. I had a bank wire me funds and showed up with all my paperwork and the bank manager turned me down because I was black.

.@terrycrews: At that point, I knew the existing financial system wasn't for me.

.@terrycrews: Bitcoin doesn't know I'm black.
