Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong, a16z crypto partner Chris Dixon, Aave founder Stani Kulechov, BitGo CEO Mike Belshe, Block CEO Jack Dorsey, and dozens of other crypto industry executives have co-signed a letter to U.S. Senate bipartisan leaders, urging them to retain provisions from the *Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act (BRCA)* in the *CLARITY Act*. The letter states that these provisions will provide legal clarity for Bitcoin, DeFi, and smart contract developers, making it clear that non-custodial software developers and service providers should not be classified as financial intermediaries. This move aims to support the growth of crypto innovation in the U.S. https://(wublock123.com)/news/coinbase-a16z-call-to-keep-us-developer-regulatory-exemption-62495
