i think it would be hard to talk about crypto without constantly talking about regulators, governments, central banks, etc etc etc
- wmf 6y agoAddressed in the article: "If there is a bill introduced around crypto, we may engage here, but we normally wouldn’t engage in policy decisions around healthcare or education for example. ... We don’t engage here when issues are unrelated to our core mission, because we believe impact only comes with focus. We don’t advocate for any particular causes or candidates internally that are unrelated to our mission, because it is a distraction from our mission. Even if we all agree something is a problem, we may not all agree on the solution." Just because something is political doesn't require you to take a stand on every other political issue.
