Sarah Milby - WAGMI Women of the Week

With the world turning its head towards the President's recent executive order on crypto, combined with crypto quickly becoming the geo-political issue of the moment, we thought it was suitable to profile Sarah Milby this week, Senior Policy Manager of the Blockchain Association.

The Blockchain Association is a member led, member driven organization dedicated to improving the public policy environment for crypto networks.

Sarah Milby helps develop and implement policy decisions on behalf of the Association, and she focuses mainly on securities, commodities, and tax issues. 

What was the first coin you bought?

ETH

If you were gifted $1k, what coin or NFT would you be buying more of? 

Disclaimer: I am not an investment advisor and this is not investment advice. That being said, I think I would get ETH since next generation digital infrastructure is being built on Ethereum and you need ETH to participate. 

Any new crypto or NFT projects or artists you are buying more of or watching out for? 

dYdX just launched a new NFT collection called Hedgies. They’re super fun and are being given away each day.  

Best piece of investing advice someone gave you? 

Invest in your values. That is, find projects that advance or encompass your values.
