Wyoming Blockchain Symposium

Wyoming’s going big on blockchain again — and Governor Mark Gordon is stepping into the spotlight to talk about it. On Wednesday, August 20 at 5:05 p.m. MT, Gordon will take the stage at the Wyoming Blockchain Symposium at the Four Seasons Jackson Hole in Teton Village to discuss the state’s latest digital finance milestone: becoming the first in the nation to launch a fully-reserved, fiat-backed stable token.

Gordon won’t be alone. He’s teaming up for a fireside chat with Joel Revill, Commissioner of the Wyoming Stable Token Commission and CEO of Two Ocean Trust, to dig into Wyoming’s eight-year journey crafting digital asset laws. The duo will also cover why the Wyoming Stable Token matters — not just for crypto enthusiasts, but for everyday consumers and the broader US economy.

“This is a big deal,” said John Darsie, CEO of SALT and partner at Skybridge Capital, who’s helping host the event. “We are thrilled to welcome Governor Mark Gordon to the Wyoming Blockchain Symposium for our second annual event.”

With Wyoming’s track record of pushing crypto-friendly legislation — from special-purpose depository institutions to digital property rights — the conversation is expected to draw industry leaders, investors, and policy watchers eager to see where the Cowboy State takes blockchain next.
