Summary:
Matt from Spiral discusses the importance of the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act, which aims to clarify regulations around non-custodial wallets and protect developers from being classified as money transmitters. The act, introduced by Representatives Emmer and Torres, seeks to amend the law so that developers of non-custodial platforms are not subject to KYC and AML requirements. Matt emphasizes the need for the Bitcoin community to pressure Congress to pass the act to prevent potential restrictions on access to innovative wallet technologies in the US.
