I started building in DeFi as a fully doxxed American — knowing that no matter how hard I tried to do it right, I could still end up in jail or sued by my own government. This one's personal. @DromosLabs is fully behind it.

We've gone to legal/regulatory hell and back just because we had the audacity to build open source permissionless software So I'm a huge fan of this initiative Fighting the good fight

NEWS: DEFEND DEVELOPERS PAC LAUNCHES AMID CLARITY FIGHT Crypto in America reported the launch of Defend Developers PAC, the first PAC focused exclusively on backing lawmakers who support legal protections for blockchain developers. It will focus only on existing members of Congress, where the group believes donor dollars can have the greatest impact, and expects to deploy more than SIX FIGURES across dozens of races during the midterms. The PAC was founded by Gavin Zavatone, policy lead at the DeFi Education Fund, and its board includes members also from the Solana Policy Institute, Uniswap, American Innovation Project, and Orca Creative.

NEW: Defend Developers PAC launches to back incumbent lawmakers who support legal protections for crypto and DeFi builders, targeting six figures across dozens of midterm races.

Policymakers that support developers deserve developers' support! Thank you @glzavatone for creating the first PAC focused on doing that—and that alone. I'm looking forward to helping build the movement.

Proud to join @defenddevspac as a Board Member For too long, devs building decentralized tech have not had a unified voice in Congress DDPAC is changing that through support of Members of Congress who champion dev protections and builders Join us: defenddeveloperspac.org/cont…

Proud to join the @defenddevspac board. The decisions Congress makes now will set tech and digital asset policy for decades. DDPAC is backing the incumbents who *actually* champion software developers and infrastructure providers as those decisions get made.

The 2026 election cycle will shape the committees that set tech and digital asset policy for years to come. That's why I'm proud to serve on @defenddevspac’s board. Learn more and join us: defenddeveloperspac.org/cont…

Proud to serve as a Board Member of @defenddevspac. American crypto builders deserve clear rules, and DDPAC exists to support the Members of Congress who get that. Let's build. 🇺🇸 defenddeveloperspac.org/cont…
