 The Missouri Senate just passed a piece of legislation that I've been working on for a few years - Regulatory Sandboxes.

This is similar to laws passed in states like Wyoming, that allow businesses to new and innovative ideas to test their products/services where current regulations may have killed the idea before it started. 

This is particular helpful for businesses that employ Bitcoin as a tool.

The House has already passed a similar bill, so I'm hopeful one of the chambers will pick up the others and make sandboxes the law of the land. 
 Will this apply to farmers? For example if I want to have meat butchered at a state facility and sold in restaurants  
 Unlike other sandbox language, ours is universal. It is applicable to all industries.

Several other states only do financial, or legal, or other.

You'd still have to work with the Dept of Ag through the process, but yes, farming is included. 
 The fact that it's universal is actually a huge accomplishment. I've only ever seen this applied thus far to FinTech and "web3". Excellent work! 
 Arizona, Utah, and Kentucky all of universal. 

We don't have it yet, either bill still needs approval by the other chamber...but this is the best position we've been in so far.
