How do the decisions made in Washington DC ripple through the entire crypto industry? Can blockchain rebuild trust in finance—or will outdated policies hold back real innovation?
On this episode of Vivi in the Valley: Crypto for Good Series, Vivi sits down with Jason Brett, former FDIC regulator and one of crypto’s sharpest policy minds. Jason draws from his experience during the 2008 financial crisis and years advising governments, giving us a rare look inside DC’s halls of power at a true turning point for digital assets.
Highlights:
How trust and transparency can rebuild finance (and why blockchain matters)
The real story behind “Operation Chokepoint 2.0”
What’s actually happening in DC right now on crypto policy (including stablecoins & market structure bills)
Why real world asset tokenization (RWA) is the next frontier—and where the hype stops
Jason’s inside stories from Capitol Hill, advice for US policymakers, and global trends you need to watch
Whether you’re a builder, investor, or just crypto-curious, this episode will help you make sense of the shifting regulatory landscape—and what it means for the soul of innovation.
