“Save our Wallets" comes off as a pretty stupid compaign. I certainly don’t want to see Open Source Bitcoin devs unlawfully incriminated for their contributions. I mostly just think that the “Save our Wallets” is a poor way to communicate the proposed bill. Who picked “Save our Wallets”?

Discussion
I will be sure to relay this message to Matt... Do you have any alternate naming conventions you'd like to propose?
Why not just use the name of the bill. BRCA (Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act). This is how nostr:npub185h9z5yxn8uc7retm0n6gkm88358lejzparxms5kmy9epr236k2qcswrdp refers to it.
The “save our wallets” campaign name was trying to capture that wallets are the things at risk (very specifically wallets, more specifically than developers or other groups). We could use the bill name but those things change (bills get included in larger bills, new versions come out with a new name, etc) so they’re sometimes hard to use as a brand.
