Texas Emerges as Leader in Web3 Innovation: A Call to Preserve Economic Independence

The Texas “economic miracle” continues to thrive, with the state solidifying its position as a leader in Web3 innovation. According to the latest data from the Texas Work Commission, Texas experienced the largest increase in nonagricultural employment in the first quarter of this year, setting record-high levels of jobs and marking its 36th consecutive month of positive annual growth.

One of the key factors driving this innovation is the state’s pro-crypto policies, which have attracted a robust ecosystem of developers and miners. Texas’ deregulated power market also plays a role, providing access to inexpensive power, including renewable sources.

Companies like Consensys have taken notice of Texas’ favorable environment and have relocated their operations to the state. Consensys, a company built on Ethereum blockchain technology, made the move from New York to North Texas last year, citing Texas’ business-friendly leadership and stable regulatory environment as key factors.

However, this progress is now under threat from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which is attempting to reclassify ether, the digital commodity that powers Ethereum, as a security. This move could have far-reaching implications, potentially stifling innovation and development in the blockchain space.

In response, Consensys and other industry leaders are fighting back against the SEC’s regulatory overreach, filing litigation to halt the agency’s campaign. They are calling on the state of Texas to join them in protecting the state’s position at the forefront of Web3 innovation.

As Joseph Lubin, co-founder of Ethereum and CEO of Consensys, emphasizes, the outcome of this battle will not only impact the future of blockchain technology but also the economic independence of Texas. Texans who value innovation and technological advancement are urged to support efforts to preserve the state’s leadership in this critical sector.
