Bitcoin has and will change the world with other cryptocurrencies to follow. I urge the U.S. to focus on moving forward with developments on this so that innovators in this new technology era will choose to find America a supportive environment to grow in.

The projects that are already running in the U.S. should not be held back by uncertainty and should be supported as they are the greatest projects on Earth. However, if the U.S. do not take proper action to support innovation, people will move forward regardless, even if it means leaving the U.S. behind.

I urge the U.S. to set favorable regulations on tax methods, clarity on regulation and clarity on securities so the world can grow with less uncertainty and the most advanced developers may feel at home working in the U.S. instead of finding more favorable conditions elsewhere in this ever fast competing global market.

Thank you for letting me write and I wish the SEC and the U.S. the very best to great success and prosperity.
