Privacy and National Security
Financial privacy and security are foundational to the blockchain ecosystem. We support balanced policies that safeguard privacy, address illicit finance risks, and enable effective cybersecurity practices across blockchain networks without undermining lawful blockchain use.
Overbroad and uninformed policies risk eroding privacy, weakening the security benefits of decentralized systems, and exposing U.S. consumers and businesses to foreign adversaries.
Policy Engagement
We provide feedback on a variety of national security-related bills and participate in agency led privacy roundtables, ensuring they both reflect blockchain’s unique architecture.
Member Collaboration
Our Privacy Technology and National Security & Cybersecurity Working Groups develop guidance and advocacy strategies for secure decentralized systems.
Public Education
We host briefings for regulators and staff on encryption, zero-knowledge proofs, and digital identity solutions.
Strengthening America’s National Security
We support novel, privacy-preserving technologies that align with U.S. national security priorities and promote cross-border trade and commerce.
Security by Design
We engage with policymakers to ensure cybersecurity frameworks are tailored to secure decentralized networks without obstructing or delaying on-chain dynamics.
Responsible Innovation
Privacy-enhancing technologies must be encouraged as part of a safer, more democratic financial system that is consistent with our fundamental rights to privacy and safety.
