I honestly don't think crypto is political issue... this was the quote from Biden when he veto'd that bill:

"My Administration is eager to work with the Congress to ensure a comprehensive and balanced regulatory framework for digital assets, building on existing authorities,"

and

"Sen. Elizabeth Warren’s anti-cryptocurrency crusade is facing pressure from her own party.

Dozens of Democrats, including Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, have broken with her in recent days and supported an effort to undo SEC guidelines that critics say discourage banks from holding digital assets."

Obviously actions speak louder than words, but I also understand that for things like blockchain, AI, emerging technologies, etc you want to try and get the regulations right so that you don't stifle innovation, but also protect the citizens from being run over.

There's a big difference between being anti-crypto and trying to make sure you get the regulation right.

I personally think that makes sense rather than rushing things in... but I also get there is a ton of nuance with these things and so I'm sure everyone's going to get angry at me for trying to point out that nuance.
