LAS VEGAS, April 10, 2025 – The Bitcoin Conference, the world's largest Bitcoin and fintech event, and America250 announced “Code & Country”

"Code & Country" will bring together U.S. cabinet officials and policymakers, leading tech companies, and Bitcoin industry titans at the Venetian Conference Center in Las Vegas on Tuesday, May 27, 2025, to discuss accelerating innovation through public policy.

The event is part of the Bitcoin Conference, the world’s largest Bitcoin and fintech event, which is set to take place from May 26-28, 2025.

Chris LaCivita, Co-Manager to Donald Trump’s 2024 Presidential Campaign and Senior Strategic Advisor for America250, Rosie Rios, Chair of America250, David Sacks, White House Crypto and AI Czar, and Bo Hines, White House Executive Director will be speaking at Code & Country.

Joining them are Bitcoin industry executives Gemini Founders, Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss and the Chief Legal and Chief Policy Officers of Coinbase, Paul Grewal and Faryar Shizad (respectively,) and BTC Inc Founder and CEO, David Bailey.

More speakers and the official program will be announced in the coming weeks on the Bitcoin 2025 website.

“Bitcoin is experiencing unprecedented recognition at the highest levels of government, but it’s not happening in a silo,” said David Bailey, BTC Inc. Co-Founder and CEO.

“President Trump’s establishment of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve is one of many steps he’s taken to promote American innovation. Our stage is where these conversations started, and we’re taking it to the next level in Las Vegas.”

For the first time, the Bitcoin Conference is expanding its stage to include converging technologies.

The organizers noted that Bitcoin’s mainstream adoption is a direct result of groundbreaking technological advancements, industrial strength, and a supportive regulatory landscape.

In a unique collaboration, the organizers have also enlisted the support of America250, the Congressional Commission tasked with celebrating the 250th anniversary of the United States.

This partnership recognizes the integral role American policies play in advancing technology throughout the world.

“President Trump has assembled the first pro-crypto administration,” said Chris LaCivita. “Wall Street, Silicon Valley, and space exploration are all part of America’s legacy for human achievement. President Trump’s agenda ensures that crypto, AI, and energy abundance will write this next chapter in history.”

Cabinet officials, U.S. Members of Congress, and key figures from federal agencies—including the Department of Justice, Treasury, and Department of Energy—will join industry executives from the Bitcoin, AI, energy, fintech, internet access, space, and enterprise technology sectors.

Together, they will engage in a dialogue about the next era of human advancement and the critical role that the government plays in fostering open innovation.

The Bitcoin Conference has previously hosted prominent political figures such as President Donald Trump, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, Howard Lutnik, Ron Paul, and Vivek Ramaswamy, many of whom hold positions in the new administration, are vocal proponents of Bitcoin, and serve as ardent supporters of economic freedom.

Attendance at Code & Country is exclusively available to Bitcoin 2025 Industry Pass and Whale Pass holders, ensuring a high-caliber networking environment.

Attendees will listen to and participate in discussions on these topics, with more information to be announced in the coming weeks.
