Contact your congressman about the Token Taxonomy Act

Posted: 22 Dec 2018 03:14 AM PST

If you're located in the US, please take the time to contact your congressman using the link below. The Token Taxonomy Act looks to exclude digital tokens from the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 which could be vital to the future of cryptocurrency. https://www.house.gov/representatives/find-your-representative

I wrote up a template you're all free to use as well:

Dear Congressman,

I am contacting you requesting your support of the Token Taxonomy Act proposed by Congressmen Warren Davidson and Darren Soto. Decentralized networks don't fit neatly within the existing regulatory structure. The proposed bill is a step forward in finding the right way to regulate them. Please review this bill and vote to pass it and continue the United State's tradition of being a thought leader in the world.

Thank you,
