US Will Have a “Rational” Blockchain Policy, Regardless of Election Outcome

Dan Morehead, CEO of Pantera Capital, is confident that the US will adopt a sensible approach to blockchain technology, no matter who wins the upcoming presidential election.

Harris’s Blockchain Mentions

Morehead points to Vice President Kamala Harris’s recent public statements about blockchain as a sign of things to come. In a speech last week, Harris highlighted the importance of the US leading in emerging technologies, specifically mentioning blockchain alongside AI, quantum computing, and clean energy.

Morehead sees this as a significant step forward. “In policy, that first step is just so hard,” he said. “Once you’ve done it, it’s easy to continue along that path.”

This isn’t the first time Harris has mentioned blockchain. At a fundraiser last month, she pledged to support investments in digital asset technology.

A Positive Sign for Blockchain

Morehead’s optimism stems from the belief that these public statements signal a growing understanding and acceptance of blockchain technology within the US government. He believes that regardless of who wins the election, the US will move towards a more supportive policy for blockchain.
