Yes, and here's the video and related, with some videos posted here earlier on the matter... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xcQ_AW6O07U https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g8JE3jLaG8E https://cryptobriefing.com/crypto-leaders-washington-blockchain-education/ https://www.cnbc.com/video/2019/07/17/rep-patrick-mchenry-theres-no-capacity... And a fine commentary by David Chaum... https://elixxir.io/blog/privacy-preserving-technology-vs-legislation https://elixxir.io/_nuxt/img/David_Congressional_Testimony_p.7.e58de8b.png https://elixxir.io/_nuxt/img/David_Congressional_Testimony_p.8.bcffaed.png https://elixxir.io/_nuxt/img/Chaum_ACLU_Letter_1985_p1.48bf6c3.png https://elixxir.io/_nuxt/img/Chaum_ACLU_Letter_1985_p2.e1af549.png It's taking the programmed sheeple in the retarded public much longer to sort out the bannable centralized shitcoins like Facebook Libra and most of the top-N, from the real unbannable uncensorable distributed privacy cypherpunk cryptoanarchy coins. That process will probably take another decade to fully resolve in favor of the true cryptocurrencies. US Alcohol Drug Guns Etc Prohibition eras showed Govt can't really stop anything anyways, it's all a FUD game. And the internet is it's own Congress. In the end, what will be will be. If you're lucky, and honest OG enough in your advocacy, true cryptocurrencies will be. Politicians, Government, Banks, are wasting their fucking time, and their gains, trying to ban and FUD crypto. Their best move is to fully support a hands off open market, to service it, and buy what they can get.
