The Senate leaves for August recess on Friday. If the Clarity Act gets its floor vote first, more than 70 million American crypto owners gain the core protections investors in every other market take for granted. Here's what changes the day it becomes law. 🧵

💡 This past Thursday, the DSA continued its four-part educational series with students at @SAES High School, with Professor Charles CY Wang, from @HarvardHBS, returning to lead the third session. Following the group's earlier discussion of @coinbase, this case study turned to @WellsFargo, examining accountability in traditional banking, the fragility of consumer trust, and what happens to a franchise when that trust is broken. Students worked through how incentives, culture, and governance shape institutional behavior, and why credibility is one of the hardest assets for a financial institution to rebuild. One session left in the series! We're excited for the finale and grateful to Professor Wang and the St. Andrew's community for such thoughtful engagement. 📚

Today, our Managing Director, @AdrianWall8395, will join the @DefiantNews's live discussion on the Clarity Act, addressing this critical moment for crypto market structure legislation. Tune in live at 12:30 PM EST to hear his insights.👇

Digital assets are now core American financial infrastructure, and the window to legislate them is closing fast. The Senate breaks for August recess on the 7th, and no floor vote is scheduled on market structure. Here's why Congress needs to finish the job. 🧵

Banks Onchain 🏦 @Visa is developing an internal stablecoin platform to help banks and fintechs across its network handle stablecoin transactions seamlessly. The rollout will launch with OUSD, a new stablecoin backed by over 140 companies including @Mastercard, @Stripe, and @BlackRock. This move shows how stablecoins are embedded in core payment infrastructure, with traditional financial rails and digital assets converging faster than ever. Read more at @TheBlockCo 👇

Our Managing Director, @AdrianWall8395, joined @CryptoAmerica_ to discuss why in-person meetings on the Hill matter, explaining positions, listening to others, and building the compromise and trust needed for good policy. He also spoke to the importance of clear market structure rules of the road for digital assets to bake trust into the system. Watch the full clip below 👇

Our Managing Director, @AdrianWall8395, recently joined the @ThinkCryptoPod to discuss the Clarity Act, crypto policy, and the path toward a more competitive digital asset ecosystem. Check out the full conversation below.👇

Stablecoins are becoming the backbone of global digital finance, offering speed, transparency, and accessibility that traditional systems often lack. This latest milestone from @trondao, with USDT supply on TRON surpassing $90 billion, underscores just how critical this infrastructure has become. As adoption grows, networks like Tron will continue to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of digital value transfer. 🌐

Our Managing Director, @AdrianWall8395, joined @CryptoAmerica_ to discuss why banks were slow to take the crypto industry seriously ahead of the GENIUS Act's passage. It's a reminder that institutions who engage early will be best positioned as digital asset policy matures. Watch the full clip below 👇

💡Financial literacy is one of the clearest levers of personal and economic independence we have. Yet most Americans were never formally taught how money actually works. Here is why that gap matters, and how to start closing it.

Today, DSA’s @MollyWoodman and Emily Ekshian attended the Financial Literacy and Wealth Creation Caucus’ 3rd Annual Financial Education Resource Fair, hosted by @RepBeatty and @RepYoungKim. The event brought together organizations to help individuals strengthen financial skills, improve money management, and build long-term resilience. This mission aligns with DSA’s work to expand financial education in the digital economy. Building financial knowledge today helps create stronger economic opportunities tomorrow.

"Payments are the earliest use case because the parameters are well-defined and the mandate is constrained." As AI agents move into crypto wallets, the smartest path forward is going to be controlled autonomy: scoped permissions, spend caps, and human override. Payments lead the way.

💡Today, DSA hosted its first-ever Financial Literacy for the Digital Economy session, and what a turnout! We had the privilege of presenting to residents from Maine and bringing our community together. Understanding both traditional finance and the emerging tools in decentralized finance is becoming essential for everyone navigating today's economy. More sessions to come!

💡The DSA's @AdrianWall8395 and @MollyWoodman met to discuss the national security stakes of delaying market structure legislation, and why the US can't afford to wait. While we debate, talent and innovation are heading abroad in search of regulatory certainty. If the US wants to lead, we have to lead here. 🇺🇸

Sound rules are the foundation on which trustworthy digital dollars are built. The @federalreserve's proposed customer identification framework for stablecoin issuers is a welcome step toward responsible innovation under the GENIUS Act. 🇺🇸 Statement from our Managing Director @AdrianWall8395 follows:

🌐From the EU to Hong Kong, regulators are rewriting the digital asset rulebook. With licensing deadlines approaching, and new rules emerging for cross-border crypto payments, the global landscape is shifting fast. Here's your crypto policy update:

Stablecoins just hit $320B in total supply, closing in on the biggest U.S. government money market funds. They now settle trillions of dollars in annual onchain volume, are held in tens of millions of wallets worldwide, and serve as the base layer for nearly every major DeFi market, including lending, DEXs, and tokenized real-world assets. Dollar liquidity is quickly migrating onto open, programmable rails, and the next decade of finance will be written on top of these rails. We intend to make sure they stay open, neutral, and accountable to the people who use them. Chart via @Grayscale.

Powerful remarks from @SenLummis during yesterday's markup on why digital asset policy matters beyond markets alone. At its core, this conversation is about individual freedom, financial access, consumer protection, and whether the U.S. will lead in shaping the next generation of financial infrastructure. 👇
