The DeCent People Podcast With Chris Giancarlo, aka ‘CryptoDad,’ and Spearhead of the Digital Dollar Project

A conversation with the former Chairman of the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission who has undertaken the Digital Dollar Project to educate lawmakers and regulators on the benefits of creating a digital greenback.

Chris Giancarlo burst on to the crypto scene as Chairman of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission when he testified before Congress, addressing lawmakers not as a regulator, he said, but "as a dad." The moniker Crypto Dad was soon bestowed on him and he used it as the title for his recent book, CryptoDad, The Fight for The Future Of Money. We talk about Chris's early life, spending afternoons at a New York City jazz club as a kid, his journey through the law and to the CFTC. He's been working on The Digital Dollar Project for about two years now, an effort to educate lawmakers and regulators about the benefits of having the U.S. dollar in digital form.
