In my meeting with Minister @satsukikatayama, I was pleased to reaffirm the strong economic partnership between the United States and Japan. The level of communication and coordination between our teams in addressing undesirable, excess volatility in currency markets continues to be constant and robust. I congratulated the Minister on Japan’s strong economic resiliency, and we held positive discussions on the U.S.-Japan investment agreement, our shared efforts on critical minerals, and the United States’ support for Japan as it works to build an investment screening mechanism.

Quantum panel on bitcoin at @satsconf_. Interesting to note that Quantum Engineer @StepanSnigirev believes the risk may only be serious in about 20 years. Far cry from the typical 2-5 year timeline we're hearing from some. @tdryja points out that some of these companies making a lot of noise to raise money would find it a lot harder to raise if they admit the risk is more like multiple decades out.
