Summary

Cynthia Lummis is a United States Senator from Wyoming. She is the first Senator in history to own Bitcoin and has become a strong advocate for the digital currency. In this conversation, we discuss her passion for Bitcoin, how to educate Congressmen and Senators, the geopolitical landscape, government sentiment on Bitcoin and CBDCs, and what people at home can do to help. ======================= Choice is a new self-directed IRA product that I'm really excited about. If you are listening to this, you are likely part of the 7.1 million bitcoin owners who have retirement accounts with dollars in them, but not bitcoin. I was in that situation too. Now you can actually buy real Bitcoin in your retirement account. I'm talking about owning your private keys and using tax-advantaged dollars to do it too. Absolute game changer. https://www.retirewithchoice.com/pomp ======================= The Rodman Law Group is dedicated to helping entrepreneurs realize their vision by helping them operate defensibly in sectors where laws and regulations haven’t caught up to the realities of the industry. The Rodman Law Group’s legal expertise combined with its understanding of blockchain technology makes it the ideal legal service provider for the industry. http://www.therodmanlawgroup.com/pomp
