‘I’d also like to see individuals be able to use Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies of their preference that are safe, that have met the hurdles of anti-money laundering and Bank Secrecy Act,’ she added.

Lummis emphasized the importance of maintaining a ‘diverse asset allocation’ — warning of the inflation risks caused by government spending and money printing:

‘The Congress spends trillions and trillions of dollars, and is flooding our economy and the world economy with U.S. dollars, there’s no way that we cannot debase the value of the U.S. dollar.’”
