Maybe the servers aren't sitting in the same place that the New York Stock Exchange or NASDAQ servers are sitting.

And so there's kind of like a replay of all of that infrastructure build out that previously happened in the traditional market.

Let's talk about regulation, which I think is another area where we don't know.

Obviously, Clarity Act is something that everyone's kind of got their eyes on.

There's been a little bit of drama between Coinbase, the White House, some of the politicians that are involved with this.

How important do you think

the regulation is.

And I always kind of struggle with, on one hand, this entire industry was kind of built outside of the legacy system and has been very, very successful without the regulatory blessing.

On the other hand, I don't think anyone in the industry necessarily wants to be on the wrong side of the rules.

And so they've constantly said, hey, just tell us what the rules are and we'll play within them.

What's your view on the regulation and how important clarity actually is?

Yeah, it does feel like, you know, every time I've ever gone to Washington, D.C., everyone is incredibly nice.

But there's a little bit of like everything is incredibly important.

You know, the future of the nation depends on every single piece.

And then if I go back to, you know, New York or any other city and I just talk to people on the street, don't even know anything's going on.

Right.

And there's always this kind of like dichotomy, if you will, of it.

And the other thing that I find really important is Peter Thiel has this great quote where he basically says, you know, things can be true that you don't think are possible.

And so an example is like most people would say you can't be rich and poor at the same time.

His point is that a founder a lot of times is cash poor, but paper rich.
