Erik Finman will present before Congress the first-ever official briefing on Bitcoin and cryptocurrency. The session is co-hosted by US Congressman, Paul Gosar, and will focus on current and future opportunities to normalize and regulate cryptocurrency in the United States. Main talking points include:

• Full legalization and designation of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as a commodity
• Clarity around the concept that cryptocurrencies arenot securities and thus not subject to the same laws

Finman’s current vision is to increase the adoption of cryptocurrency, blockchain, and bitcoin. He believes that America is on the cutting-edge of this technology and with adequate understanding, protection, and support, the widespread adoption of cryptocurrency in the US can change the way companies, government, and citizens operate in the future. In conjunction with Congressman Gosar, Finman has an opportunity to speak directly with House representatives about major obstacles Bitcoin faces currently, as well as benefits to legalizing the currency both within the Nation and globally. 

Finman states: “I am so excited to have the first ever opportunity to brief the concept of Bitcoin to Congress. It’s truly an honor to stand among these representative figures in our government to educate and promote the tremendous capabilities cryptocurrency has for the US both nationally and globally.”
