Based in Washington, D. C., Coin Center is the leading non-profit research and advocacy center dedicated to addressing the public policy issues surrounding cryptocurrency and decentralized computing technologies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. Our mission is to protect individuals' rights to build and utilize free and open cryptocurrency networks — from the freedom to write and publish code, to the ability to read and run it.

We also champion the right to assemble into peer-to-peer networks and to do so privately. At Coin Center, we produce and publish policy research, educate policymakers and the media about cryptocurrencies, advocate for robust public policy, and engage in litigation to safeguard digital civil liberties. Our team, comprised of experts in law, policy, and technology, works tirelessly to defend the freedom and autonomy that cryptocurrency and decentralized computing technologies provide.

For those looking to stay informed, Coin Center offers educational resources such as blog posts, reports, and policy briefings. We also welcome donations to support our crucial work in advancing the understanding and protection of cryptocurrency rights. Join us in shaping the future of decentralized finance
