Some bittersweet news: after more than three years, I’m wrapping up my time @DigitalChamber and joining @chainlink as Head of Policy.
I’m incredibly proud of what team TDC achieved together - from helping get the GENIUS Act signed into law and moving the Clarity Act forward, to securing 50 government speakers for the DC Blockchain Summit, and so many more wins.
I'll always be grateful to @CodyCarboneDC, @ZuneraMazhar, @PerianneDC and so many others for betting on me and giving me room to run. We pulled off the impossible and made memories I'll carry forever.
I’m closing this chapter with enormous gratitude for what we built and so much excitement for what’s next. I’m thrilled to be joining Chainlink Labs at a moment when global markets are moving onchain at lightning speed, Chainlink is building the infrastructure making that transition possible.
Immensely thankful to @SergeyNazarov, Ben Sherwin, @kkirkbos, Cedrick Dalluge, and the entire Chainlink team for their trust and I can’t wait to get to work.
Let’s keep building 🫡

.@chainlink is proud to partner with @hedera, @Aptos, @AvaLabs, and @StellarOrg in urging the SEC to codify its digital commodity framework.
Builders need lasting certainty. Codifying this progress would be a meaningful step toward keeping America the home of digital asset on_mueller for leading this effort 🫡

Great to see @chainlink’s 2.0 whitepaper cited by the @CFTC in today's ANPRM.
Onchain infrastructure (from oracles to proof of reserve, and more) can raise the standard for market safety, transparency, and resilience.
Clear rules should recognize and support that potential. ip, @ChairmanSelig 🫡

We’re encouraged by the @CFTC’s work towards clear rules for digital asset markets, including its consideration of oracles and proof of reserve.
We look forward to working with @ChairmanSelig & the Commission to strengthen U.S. leadership as markets rapidly move onchain.

American markets moving onchain means consumers get new, more robust protections. We're honored to have TDC members like @chainlink helping build a future where onchain is synonymous with safety.
American markets are moving onchain, and consumers are safer for it.
@chainlink is building the foundation to make the next generation of American markets more innovative and safer by default. x.com/i/article/2105…

From AI policy to the GENIUS Act (and so much more), @lukejpettit has helped shape how America approaches innovation. His work in @SenatorHagerty’s office and at @USTreasury leaves a strong foundation to build on.
Thank you for your service, Luke. Wishing you every success in what’s next!
Thank you for your service, Luke. Wishing you every success in what’s next!
As my chapter at @USTreasury comes to an end, I want to thank President Trump and @SecretaryBessent for the opportunity to serve at @USTreasury.
It has been an honor of a lifetime to work with such talented and patriotic colleagues within Treasury and across the Administration.
There is a lot of great work still underway; I’m looking forward to watching the policy wins continue.

It’s been little over a week post Clarity’s freeze in the Senate and so far:
@SECGov released their innovation exemption
@CFTC expanded no-action relief on passive software providers
@federalreserve released two new proposed GENIUS Act rulemakings
@CFTC updated their FAQ on crypto asset/blockchain tech activities
@WaysandMeansGOP passed a package to modernize the tax code for crypto assets with bipartisan support
@CFTC sent their “Regulation Crypto Asset Transactions and Regulation Crypto Asset Market” rulemaking to the @WhiteHouse
The path to clear + commonsense rules of the road may look different, but we will get there nonetheless.

Awesome day in DC yesterday with so many friends!
Got to start off with breakfast @DigitalChamber with @repscfigures chatting about bipartisanship, House Ag, and American leadership - followed by a roundtable led by @KevWysocki on what’s ahead for the 120th Congress.
As if ot to watch @chainlink’s own Ben Sherwin take the stage @CoinDesk alongside leaders from @coinbase, @business, @LaserDigital_, and @vanderbiltlaw.
Best part of my day? @CoinDesk sending me home with Crypto Queen @SenLummis cookies!!
