Justin Ballard (@JLB_Oso) and Jake Corley (@jacobcorley) chat with Lee Bratcher, a leading figure in the Texas Blockchain Council, about the legislative challenges and opportunities for Bitcoin and blockchain in Texas. They discuss Senate Bill 1751, which posed a risk to Bitcoin miners, and highlight the Council's educational role in shaping a favorable regulatory climate. The talk also covers generational attitudes toward Bitcoin, future plans for economic studies, and the need to link Bitcoin mining to industries like oil and gas.
