/ Policy

Multicoin Capital’s leadership and legal team engage in policy initiatives aimed at advancing a pro-crypto environment in the United States and abroad. Crypto is a technology that introduces novel regulatory and policy questions that require a deep understanding of distributed technologies, open source protocols, securities, commodities and commercial law, finance and geopolitics.

In order to achieve our policy goals, we partner with and support the best trade organizations in crypto, actively contribute financially, and work with founders, industry leaders, regulators and lawmakers to promote the latest innovations in crypto.  We believe crypto has the potential to make the world more transparent, fair and accessible, and are committed to sharing that vision.
