TODAY'S 🎙SHOW: Legal expert Zach Shapiro joins Douglas Tuman to discuss U.S. cryptocurrency legislation, the legal challenges facing privacy tech, and the philosophical divide between building unstoppable systems versus working within regulatory frameworks. Shapiro, who runs a crypto-focused law firm and is involved with the Bitcoin Policy Institute and Peer-to-Peer Rights Foundation, outlines recent bills in Congress—including the Clarity Act and Genius Act—and their implications for developers and privacy advocates. He and Doug debate Bitcoin vs. Monero, focusing on fungibility and censorship resistance, with Shapiro defending Bitcoin’s legal positioning and Doug championing Monero’s privacy features. The episode also covers ongoing cases like Tornado Cash, the status of Samurai Wallet, and efforts to repeal New York’s restrictive BitLicense.
