you know, DeFi education fund and others, you know, I've briefed members of Congress with those guys talking about how we can do better when it comes to sort of, you know, compliance and anti-money laundering than we can in the traditional world, right?
If you're a DeFi service that's a member of Beacon, we have a whole bunch today, they're not working with law enforcement, right?
Like that's not the nature of how DeFi works.
But what they are able to do is block funds that are gonna hit that platform
And, and the bad actor might go elsewhere.
But then what we want to do is we want to follow the money, and then onboard that next service where the bad actors go.
So my hope is that like, we could get as many people on board here as possible to really build the most solid perimeter.
But I think the DeFi community, like, look, I think I think at the end of the day, it's like you want to solve problems using the technology, not overregulating the space.
I love the question.
And honestly, I think it's the most important question that we've been grappling with as an industry over the last, let's say, three or four years.
It's interesting.
I think the sanctions against Tornado Cash really got this conversation started in a meaningful way years ago.
Those sanctions have since been lifted, but 2021, somewhere in that timeframe.
Look, I mean, post 9-11, we had this conversation right on city streets and in airports.
And I think today we're having it across blockchains.
I fundamentally believe that in a open financial system, people are going to need and demand privacy in order to transact.
None of this works without privacy.
I'm not sure I'd say I'm a privacy maxi, but there are very few people who believe more in being able to transact privately than I do or we do at TRM.
A couple months ago, we put out a 70-page white paper on privacy, which I've encouraged folks to read.
It's awesome.
