Who is Biden?

Joe Biden, the 46th President of the United States, is referenced in discussions about policy shifts and legislative actions. His administration’s policies, particularly in areas like cryptocurrency regulation and settler sanctions, are cited as benchmarks for subsequent changes.

Track record

  • Jul 2025 - Michael Dell noted that no new licenses for AI technology distribution had been granted, despite discussions, implying a restrictive stance during the Biden administration.
  • May 2026 - Alex Thorn characterized the Biden administration, with Gary Gensler, as establishing anti-crypto SEC policy, contrasting it with the Trump administration’s approach.
  • Aug 2026 - Joel Braunold reported that over 180 members have signed onto Jerry Nadler’s bill, which would decodify the Biden settler sanctions.

Worth quoting

Mike Schmidt on how critical industries in Biden's supply chain executive order were chosen without rigorous analysis.

“Being frank like the way we came up with those was kind of well, it's sort of obvious that these are four we need to work on. there wasn't a ton of scientific process you might say.”

Contrarian take

Michael Dell says no new AI distribution licenses have been granted globally, despite public discussion about rolling back the Biden AI diffusion rule.

“What I'm told is that no new licenses have been granted for you know for distribution of AI technologies around the world despite all of the discussion around this.”
Michael Dell · 10 Jul 2025
Contrarian take

Anti-crypto SEC policy was a Biden-era anomaly, not the historical norm. The Trump administration's posture is closer to business as usual for the SEC.

“We have this only the Biden administration with Gary Gendler is it is the president of the anti-crypto SEC policy really established and actually with the Donald Trump administration is kind of closer to business as usual.”
