I'll just quote this from one of the admins of the Sia Foundation (decentralized cloud storage):

I'm not one to ping the entire server over something trivial. As such, this is not trivial; a congressional bill has been proposed which substantially inhibits the ability of developers to build cryptocurrency applications from the US. This is a problem for more than just the Sia Foundation, it's a problem for the entire industry. If you live in the US, today is a good day to get on the phone and call your representative. Check out the tweet linked for instructions on what to do.

If you consider yourself a US citizen of crypto, then consider this a civic duty. Protect our legal rights! Make sure the US doesn't kill its crypto industry.
