SEC Prevents Digital Assets Development in the US
Faryar Shirzad, Coinbase chief policy officer, said that there have been huge developments in the crypto community. The growth emanates from the introduction of Blockchain Technology 13 years from now. However, there is inadequate development of digital assets in the United States of America, simply because of some arbitrary laws considered to aid the regular investor.
He added that the regulations based on crypto assets are null and indecent to future generations. The future needs crypto assets as there is a shift from a second-world technology to a third-world-based tech system. Moreover, the state’s developments should be fueled by a new innovation instead of putting heavy measures on digital assets in the name of security.
