So, What’s the Tea on Crypto Week?
- Senator Tim Scott is leading the charge on digital asset regulations, but let’s be real, it’s not like it’s going to save the USD from its inflationary woes 🤦♀️.
It’s “Crypto Week” in the United States, and the House is making moves on digital asset legislation 🏛️. The Senate Banking Committee, led by Senator Tim Scott, is trying to get its act together on regulations for digital assets 💸.
Senator Scott has teamed up with Senator Cynthia Lummis, a longtime Bitcoin fan girl 💖, to make sure America stays on top of the crypto game 🏆.
Lummis is all about keeping the US in the lead when it comes to crypto and Web3 innovation 💻.
The Deets on the Digital Assets Hearing
The hearing was all about reducing regulatory uncertainty and getting a better grasp on blockchain tech 🤔.
Senator Scott was all, “Hey, let’s not worry about crypto being used for nefarious purposes 🙅♂️,” and economist Jonathan Levin was like, “Yeah, illicit activity is less than 1% of what’s going on in these blockchains 📊.”
“It’s far easier to track something that has a digital footprint than something that does not.” – Senator Tim Scott 👍
Levin also pointed out that thousands of investigations have captured criminal proceeds thanks to blockchain’s transparency 🔍.
Summer Mersinger, CEO of the Blockchain Association, was all, “Traditional bank regulations just aren’t cutting it 🚫,” and warned that without some tailored rules, innovators will be heading offshore 🛫️.
Everyone’s all about finding a balance between innovation, enforcement, and American values 🤝.
What the Other Bigwigs Had to Say
There was a lot of talk about strengthening the US dollar‘s role in the global financial system 💸.
Officials were all, “Hey, if we don’t get on board with new tech, the dollar’s gonna lose its dominance 💔.”
Lark Davis, a big-time Bitcoin investor, was like, “Uh, the US dollar’s lost 90% of its purchasing power since 1971 📉, but sure, let’s worry about Bitcoin being risky 🙄.”
“The US dollar has lost 90% of its purchasing power since 1971. Bitcoin has gained over 200 million percent in the past 15 years. But sure… Bitcoin is the risky one.” – Lark Davis 😂
So, yeah, it’s time for some digital asset regulations, because fiat currencies just can’t keep up with inflation 🤯.
