The move by Rep <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://x.com/repthomasmassie/status/1790717269162561600" target="_blank">Thomas Massie</a> seeking opinions to abolish the Federal Reserve comes as the crypto market laments the actions of central banks on the markets. Although many users voted to abolish the Federal Reserve, several analysts opined for pro-crypto legislation to be pushed instead.&nbsp;
Zaprite’s Parker Lewis strewed on the American principle proffering to outcompete the Federal Reserve rather than shutting it down. This was also echoed by others as they tipped Bitcoin and <a href="https://coingape.com/uk-minister-warns-against-stricter-crypto-regulation-here-all/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">crypto regulations</a>.&nbsp;
“No you should just get behind #bitcoin&nbsp; it’s the only way the Fed is ending and it’s more American, let’s just outcompete the Fed rather than shut it down by fiat.”&nbsp;
Similarly, Pierre Rochard, VP of Research at Bitcoin Miner Riot Platforms noted that the market needs stablecoin legislation to hyper-inflate the USD. He also tipped lawmakers to make BTC tax-free to compete with the dollar leading to a smooth abolition of the Federal Reserve.

 1. Pass stablecoin legislation so that the private sector can hyperinflate the USD
 2. Make <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Bitcoin?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">#Bitcoin</a> tax-free so that it competes on a level playing field against the USD
 This enables a smooth self-abolition of the Federal Reserve.

The origin of Bitcoin and blockchain technology has its roots in the excessive centralization of monetary policy and finance. As a result, <a href="https://coingape.com/recent-study-bitcoin-hodlers-raises-concerns-decentralization/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin</a> stands as a model against traditional intermediaries in financial transactions. The asset adoption also restates the strong desire to embrace decentralization.&nbsp;
Aside from the Feds, the crypto community has lamented the Securities and Exchange Commission’s bottleneck regulatory policies.&nbsp;
