The Debate Rages! A Primer on BIP300 and Drivechains

Another week another righteous debate within Bitcoin. This time though, it's more than just some Twitter squabbling. On this episode of Bitcoin Builders, NLW provides a primer on the debate around BIP300 and drivechains, which in many ways is a debate around the boundaries of bitcoin use itself.

CBDC Fears Derail Stablecoin Bill

Crypto Week got off to a rocky start in Washington as internal GOP conflict—driven by fierce opposition to central bank digital currencies (CBDCs)—blocked a key procedural vote. NLW breaks down how the House Freedom Caucus derailed the crypto agenda over concerns about the Genius Act and its perceived lack of anti-CBDC protections. We explore what this means for the future of crypto legislation, Trump’s response, and whether the bills can still pass. Plus, NLW unpacks Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan’s case for why clear crypto rules could reduce risk—and why inflation data might complicate the Fed’s next move. Enjoying this content?
