The future of America's tech sector is in the crosshairs. In a recent discussion, Roundtable anchor Rob Nelson was joined by Perianne Boring, Founder of the Digital Chamber, as they talked about the government policies that could either push or hamper technological advancement. Their conversation laid bare the misconceptions and political agendas driving the country's approach toward emerging technologies.

Nelson opened the discussion with a somewhat provocative question: Is it that policymakers really do not understand the potential of cryptocurrencies, or is there an active effort to choke off America's technological future? He used earlier technological booms as comparable analogs to ask why any administration would want to block progress.

Perianne Boring emphasised the role of education in creating opinions about cryptocurrency. Most of the critics, according to her, are just uninformed; some people are misinformed and influenced by negative media coverage. "There are people who haven't done their homework, who haven't properly educated themselves, and remain sceptical," explained Boring.

She, however, did indicate an increased hardened opposition from the likes of Senator Elizabeth Warren. Boring argued that Warren's stance against cryptocurrency is politically motivated, hell-bent on advancing a central bank digital currency and federalising control over the financial system. "We've spent hours trying to educate her office, but it seems they've decided their policy is to kill the technology," Boring said.

Boring's comments reflect a broader sentiment in the cryptocurrency community: possible regulatory overreach and kill of innovation. Education can mitigate some of the scepticism, but deeply seated political agendas are a bit more of a challenge.

The subject at hand delineates the critical balance between regulation and innovation in the technology sector in America. As policymakers sort through these complex issues, the future of technological advancement is literally hanging in the balance at their beck and call.

Iran can produce fissile material for use in a nuclear weapon within "one or two weeks," US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Friday (July 20). The details were shared just weeks after election of moderate President Masoud Pezeshkian.&nbsp;

While Pezeshkian has said he wants to end Iran's economic isolation and that he stands for reviving the 2015 nuclear deal between Iran and global powers, Blinken disapproved Iranian president's assertion.&nbsp;

Blinken said that "what we have seen in the last weeks and months is an Iran that's actually moving forward" with its nuclear program.

In 2018, the United States under former President Donald Trump unilaterally withdrew from the nuclear deal, which was designed to regulate Iran's atomic activities in exchange for the lifting of economic sanctions.

Speaking at an event Blinken blamed the collapse of the nuclear deal for the acceleration in Iran's capabilities.&nbsp;

"Instead of being at least a year away from having the breakout capacity of producing fissile material for a nuclear weapon, (Iran) is now probably one or two weeks away from doing that," Blinken said.

He added that Iran had not yet developed a nuclear weapon.

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said last month that Iran is expanding its nuclear capacities. Tehran has already informed the agency that it was installing more cascades -- or series of centrifuges used in enrichment -- at nuclear facilities in Natanz and Fordow.

Iran is the only non-nuclear weapons state to enrich uranium to the high level of 60 per cent, just short of weapons-grade.

Following the US withdrawal, Iran has gradually broken away from its commitments under the 2015 nuclear deal.&nbsp;

But Iran's acting foreign minister Ali Bagheri told CNN earlier this week that the country remains committed to the accord, known as the JCPOA.

"We are still a member of JCPOA. America has not yet been able to return to the JCPOA, so the goal we are pursuing is the revival of the 2015 agreement," he said adding "We are not looking for a new agreement."
