Outlook for Crypto Market Structure Bill By Democrats | Chris Giancarlo, Former CFTC Commissioner
Democrats now control both chambers of Congress. What does that mean for Bitcoin and crypto regulation? Former CFTC chairman Chris Giancarlo, known as Crypto Dad, tells BMTV that the SEC and CFTC have worked out who regulates what and are cooperating well, and that the coming fight over jurisdiction is “less about good regulation and more about turf.” He explains why DTCC’s tokenized collateral work shows Wall Street is moving to digital network finance no matter what happens in Washington.
