What else is known about Davidson’s proposal? According to the Congressman, the situation in neighboring Canada, where the authorities have imposed a ban on cryptocurrency donations for protesters, is worrying. The US residents remain vulnerable to similar threats and need to be protected.

The bill on the storage of coins entitled the “Keep Your Coins Act” is designed to prevent the government from controlling users’ assets. Specifically, Davidson proposes to prohibit the state from influencing the purchase and trading of cryptocurrencies by ordinary US citizens.
