Why Every Lawmaker In America Should Be Pro-Crypto with Cody Carbone

The journey from knocking on doors to passing the GENIUS Act, this is how crypto won Washington.

In this episode of Stabled Up, we sit down with Cody Carbone from the Digital Chamber to discuss his seven-year journey advocating for crypto in DC, why the banking lobby's fight against stablecoins is already over, and how the GENIUS Act changes everything for American innovation.


We discuss:

- How Perianne Boring changed everything for crypto advocacy

- The Facebook Libra moment that sparked DC's interest

- Seven years of door-knocking that paid off

- The Streamline Act breakdown

- Stablecoin perception evolution in Congress

- Market structure vs bill reality check

- Crypto as a single-issue vote in politics

- The consumer protection paradox

- GENIUS Act implementation phase

- Banking lobby vs yield-bearing stablecoins

- TradFi adopting crypto infrastructure
