## Quote — verbatim

> I like to see regulation, legislation — in fact regulators can't do anything without legislation... I testified in front of assembly two days ago on the first blockchain law ever introduced in state of California. I really like to see some legislation around blockchain and this new economy — it's very very important. That's my number one priority, because if you get that out of the way, I think US is a cradle of innovation.
