NASHVILLE, Tenn. — U.S. Senator Tim Scott (R-S.C.), Ranking Member of the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee, today joined fellow Senate Banking Committee member Senator Cynthis Lummis (R-Wyo.) on a panel entitled “For Love of Country & Bitcoin,” at the Bitcoin 2024 Conference in Nashville, Tennessee. During the panel, Senator Scott hailed Bitcoin and blockchain technology’s potential to democratize the financial world and improve financial inclusion and called for a fair regulatory environment for the industry that encourages innovation in the United States, not overseas.

That’s what this is about – giving the average American a chance to make their own decisions at home. No matter where you live, if you’re at the mountain top or with me in the valleys low, having a chance to democratize our financial footprint is an absolutely essential part of achieving the American Dream,” said Senator Scott. “We need a regulatory environment that understands that freedom and liberty are inseparable.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T18:32:29Z |
