1/ Bittersweet day. Today is my last day @BlockchainAssn. What an incredible journey fighting for crypto's future. Thank you to my amazing BA team and our members. I've learned more than I could've imagined and I attribute that to all of you. 🧵
2/ Looking back at BA's impact: We filed dozens of amicus briefs and comment letters, we sued (and beat) the gov twice, and we passed the first crypto legislation with more on the way. Years of relationship building, knowledge sharing, and strategy sessions paid off.
3/ But BA's strength isn't just our team (which is certainly a force) - it is our ecosystem. Working alongside other organizations such as @fund_defi, @coincenter, @crypto_council, @ProgressChamber, @fightfortheftr, and @TXblockchain_ showed me the power of coalition building.
4/ The crypto industry is diverse and BA's member engagement taught me the importance of listening, finding common ground, and building bridges across our ecosystem. So what's next for me?
5/ I'll be joining the legal team at @phantom and luckily will become a @BlockchainAssn member. (reach out to @DanSpuller if you'd like to join!)
6/ Why @phantom? After years in the DC world, I'm excited to build. I'm excited to work on the ground with a project I believe in. One that's pushing forward the new paradigm of digital ownership and making this ecosystem accessible to everyone.
7/ BA family: Thank you for the privilege of working alongside you. I look forward to our continued work together! 🙏 Phantom team: I am excited to build together soon! 🙌 The future of crypto is bright! [but for my lawyer brain, I would insert rocketship emoji here]✨ [end]
