YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe bankruptcy of crypto exchange FTX and the arrest of its former CEO San Bankman-Fried has had a lasting effect on the digital asset sector, for sure.

There was already a fire lit under some lawmakers when it comes to imposing regulations on crypto Last year, President Biden issued an executive order () asking agencies to take coordinated action on digital assets. And in the summer, Senators Cynthia Lummis and Kristen Gillibrand issued a bipartisan crypto bill () that, among other things, would step up oversight on stablecoins and crypto energy usage.
And then there is the ongoing battle between the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodities Futures Trading Commission - over whether cryptocurrencies are securities…. or commodities.
