Texas is a hub for jobs, innovation, and freedom—making it the natural oasis for Bitcoin mining. These operations can improve our grid resiliency since they can shut off during inclement weather and free up electricity to heat or cool homes. pic.twitter.com/rpU5i3v03G

#Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies are good. Central Bank Digital Currencies are bad. Liberals and the CCP hate crypto because they can’t control it—it’s decentralized.

Federal Reserve Officers are not elected officials – or held accountable by the public. It will be a disaster if they rollout a CBDC. It’s the main reason why they hate #Bitcoin – it’s completely decentralized. pic.twitter.com/o1GYjxJpDZ

Texas is a hub for jobs and innovation, so it makes sense that our state has become a hub for the crypto community. Most legislators in DC don’t understand this industry, so they shouldn’t be supporting new regulations until they understand how it works. dailycaller.com/2023/03/08/ted…

Today, I attended the @TxBlockchainSmt in Austin.   I am proud to fight in the US Senate for crypto innovation – free from overly burdensome regulations.   Democrats hate crypto because they can’t control it! pic.twitter.com/Wp87UdprFL

Bitcoin and crypto represent freedom. It's not surprising that there is tremendous pushback from most Democrats because they cannot control cryptocurrencies. Thank you to the @Heritage Foundation for hosting this exciting discussion tonight. pic.twitter.com/86DE3ynuCr

Today the city of Ft. Worth took a huge leap, becoming the first local government in the country to mine #Bitcoin.   Congratulations @mayormattie and @txblockchain1, your hard work is cementing the Lone Star State as a hotbed for crypto and bitcoin innovation! twitter.com/mayormattie/st…

The federal government has the ability to encourage and nurture innovation in the cryptocurrency space, or to completely devastate it. This bill goes a long way in making sure big government doesn’t attempt to centralize and control cryptocurrency. cruz.senate.gov/newsroom/press…

The Lone Star State has quickly emerged as the main hub for the cryptocurrency industry, and that exciting industry is now in danger of being stifled and driven overseas by an overreaching provision in this newly-signed, reckless spending package. 1/3 cruz.senate.gov/newsroom/press…

Not only is Saule Omarova, Biden’s pick to lead the OCC, a threat to our traditional economy, she also wants to regulate crypto into oblivion. Crypto faces future-defining government regulations. This nomination needs to be stopped. coindesk.com/policy/2021/09…

That effort was blocked too. You can barely find five senators who understand anything about cryptocurrency, but apparently, that won’t stop us from regulating it to death and driving this promising industry overseas.

The Senate should actually take the time to try to understand #crypto before even thinking of regulating it the way we're doing. Washington, D.C. is destroying people's lives and livelihoods from a position of functionally complete ignorance. pic.twitter.com/zDjiwPTLv2
