Eric Sorensen completed the Stand With Crypto Questionnaire and supports establishing clear legislative pathways for digital asset businesses, self-custody rights, and ending de-banking for lawful crypto entities. He advocates for a legislative framework to define digital assets as securities or commodities and supports exploring blockchain technology for government efficiency, while also believing non-custodial software developers should not be regulated as financial intermediaries. Sorensen has supported bills like the Clarity Act and FIT21, emphasizing the need for clear, consistent regulations, strong market structure, and consumer protections, though he does not support widely accessible 1:1 backed stablecoins.

Very pro-crypto

It’s about time we bring some “clarity” to the cryptocurrency market that has often operated on the edges of our financial system. Today, I helped pass the CLARITY Act, which will help bring some regulations and structures to the growing digital currency sector.
Somewhat pro-crypto
