Look, the simple way of explaining it is we're not just counting people directly working in crypto companies.

Oliver BrownGUEST
we're looking at the full economic footprint of the industry, and we really use three main steps, which I'll describe at a very high level.

Oliver BrownGUEST
It's a really complicated model, and the easiest way to understand it is at these high levels.

Oliver BrownGUEST
First, we calculate direct employment, and that's just all the people that are directly employed working at a crypto firm, that broad range of roles that I've talked about already, Ali.

Oliver BrownGUEST
We then look at, indirectly, how many jobs are created and supported to service the crypto industry? And that means all of the people hired by suppliers of crypto firms, specifically because of the business they get from crypto firms themselves.

Ali TagerHOST
Are there certain states that are seeing a larger increase in crypto jobs on the market compared to other states? Or what trend lines are you seeing that have to do with geography?

Oliver BrowneGUEST
