About this episode
In today’s episode, we welcome a U.S. presidential candidate who just rolled out a pro-crypto policy. This is the first one we’ve seen. His name is Vivek Ramaswamy and he plans to protect these three core crypto freedoms: Plank 1 - Freedom to Code, Plank 2 - Freedom of Financial Self Reliance, and Plank 3 - Freedom from Regulatory Overreach.
Vivek Ramaswamy is a 38-year-old Republican presidential candidate. He’s an entrepreneur, he’s worked in finance, he talks a lot about freedom - most importantly, he’s brought us a new policy platform on crypto, that if elected - he will implement. That’s why we’re doing the show today.
