All the time.\n\nCongressmen and women scammed by SBF are weary of “crypto” - and they are right! \n\nWe need to be specific\n\n“Crypto council” type constructs are silly. Why should Bitcoin miners have to share a table and discuss fart coin? Completely unrelated to what they do \n\nHuge respect to BPI for pushing in this direction, their name alone means and does a lot\n\nThere should be Bitcoin meetings, legislation, working groups etc which exclude affinity scammers or anyone not working on Bitcoin"}
