And then, I think maybe it was this little one saying, 'I just want this mom,' so now I happen to be pregnant again. So recently, I really haven't reduced my daily workload at all — I'm just sitting in that little cubicle you all see in the photos, chatting with everyone."

The proposal also seeks to allow qualifying state-chartered trust companies to serve as qualified custodians for digital assets such as Bitcoin. The proposal does not yet specify approval of any particular digital asset for investment adviser custody; if ultimately passed, Bitcoin could benefit due to its relatively mature existing institutional custody infrastructure.
