SEC Chair Gensler on Crypto Regulation

SEC Chairman Gary Gensler talked about crypto regulation Friday in his remarks before the U.S. Treasury Department’s Financial Stability Oversight Council (FSOC). Gensler said:

Nothing about the crypto markets is incompatible with the securities laws. Yet risks from this speculative, volatile, and what I believe is a largely noncompliant market put investors at risk.

“This is why bringing intermediaries and issuers of crypto securities tokens into compliance is so important,« je poudaril.

“While the risks from the crypto markets generally do not appear to date to have spread to the traditional financial sector, we must remain vigilant to guard against that possibility,” the SEC chief concluded.

Gensler and the SEC have been criticized for not preventing the collapse of crypto exchange FTX given that SEC staff, including the chairman himself, imel several meetings with former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF). The securities watchdog finally napolnjena Bankman-Fried and his crypto exchange with fraud last week after he was arrested in the Bahamas. ZDA.

Financial Stability Oversight Council’s Crypto Regulatory Recommendations

The Council emphasizes the importance of agencies continuing to enforce existing rules and regulations applicable to the crypto-asset ecosystem.

Noting that the Council has identified gaps in the regulation of crypto activities, the Treasury explained that in addressing these gaps, the Council has recommended “the enactment of legislation providing for rulemaking authority for federal financial regulators over the spot market for crypto-assets that are not securities.” Furthermore, the Treasury noted: “Steps should be taken to address regulatory arbitrage since crypto-asset entities offer services similar to traditional financial institutions but do not have a consistent or comprehensive regulatory framework.”
