Can Securities Laws Keep Pace With Innovation?
Nearly everyone agrees that the cryptoasset market needs more robust regulation, but there is much disagreement about what the laws should look like as well as who should be legislating & enforcing them.
Because cryptoassets are popping up at a staggering rate, the law is struggling to keep pace with technological innovation, thereby increasing the potential for scams, fraud, & poor practice.
Currently, crypto is overseen by a loose combination of federal & state bodies, & the regulatory framework is complicated & precarious. New bills under consideration may help clarify tax requirements; bolster cybersecurity measures; & account for further disclosure requirements, energy consumption tracking, & more.
One key concern goes to the question of whether cryptoassets are commodities or securities, which raises crucial issues about which governing organization should be responsible for oversight & enforcement.
