US Senator Lummis firmly opposes the implementation of <a href="https://coingape.com/glossary/central-bank-digital-currency-cbdc/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CBDCs</a>, describing them as tools for government surveillance of the American people. In addition, she advocates for allowing individuals to hold and control their own Bitcoin wallets, emphasizing financial sovereignty. 
Senator Cynthia Lummis is widely known for her pro-crypto mindset and is also known as “Crypto Queen” on Capitol Hill. Meanwhile, in her latest interview, Lummis said “We want to make sure people can have individual wallets for their Bitcoin” so that the American people can have unrestricted access to their own money. 
Meanwhile, Lummis believes that integrating Bitcoin into the US financial system could reinforce the strength of the US dollar. She asserts that holding Bitcoin reserves can play a crucial role in maintaining the dollar’s dominance. “We know that we want the US Dollar to remain strong. Having Bitcoin in reserves can actually help the US dollar to remain strong,” she said.

“Bitcoin and digital assets are the future,” Cynthia Lummis posted. In her X post, she said: 
<blockquote>
 Here’s my agenda: No retail Central Bank Digital Currencies, clear protections for self-custody Bitcoin wallets, restore Dollar Dominance for the 21st Century.
</blockquote>

In a previous statement from May, she emphasized the fundamental importance of decentralization and resistance to censorship. 
Notably, the US Senator’s pro-crypto stance contrasts with the current regulatory environment in the U.S., which many crypto leaders criticize for its lack of clarity.
