The Protocol: Bitcoin Gets Political as U.S. Government Ponders Airdrops

In
this
week’s
issue
of
CoinDesk’s
newsletter
on
blockchain
tech,
we
examine
U.S.
Senator
Cynthia
Lummis’s
call
for
a
national
“Bitcoin
Strategic
Reserve.”
We’ve
also
got
photos
from
the
Bitcoin
Nashville
conference,
where
it
seemed
like
nearly
everyone
was
talking
about
staple-gunning
layer-2
networks
onto
the
original
blockchain.
