Partner at CEHV and Adjunct Professor of Science and Business Analysis, Adam Cochran calls the SEC an embarrassment to the United States of America. The crypto leader with thousands of followers takes to Twitter to explain why.
Read CRYPTONEWSLAND onAccording to Cochran’s tweet above, he breaks his tweet down to a 5-part thread where he addresses American lawmakers on why he believes the SEC is an embarrassment. In fact, he also goes on to say that the SEC’s actions, or lack thereof, is likely a present danger as well.
He begins by highlighting the SEC’s recent reply in its case against Coinbase. According to that court document, Chair Gensler went on to cite cases where they suggested a 10-20 year rulings as acceptable.
Cochran says that this lack of activity is pretty much leading an attack against innovation in America. If no rules or acceptable framework is put into place, innovators will be unsure of what ideas may violate the SEC’s unwritten policies.
Presently, regulations are being used to hinder and stamp out neobanks, non-bank money lenders, digital asset providers, and payment apps on the supposed grounds of ‘safety’. This threat is undefined as the SEC continually refuses to establish a proper framework of rules.
Meanwhile, OCC regulated banks are crumbling and taking down the American economy with it. User deposits continue to suffer due to this failing traditional banking state as well. Cochran goes on to accept that new technologies can be overwhelming.
However, he says there is no reason to have the verdict delayed for so long. After all, crypto was created in 2010. So why does the SEC need over a decade to place regulations while other US regulators have already answered the call?
Cochran goes on to list the actions of other US regulators. In order, FinCen (2013), IRS (2014), FEC (2014), EBA (2014), GAO (2014), and CFTC (2015). Once again, Cochran highlights Gensler’s failure in being able to provide concrete guidance to the crypto space.
Lastly, Cochran calls out the SEC glacial reaction being prolonged by their request to delay the verdict for another decade. He says if the SEC continues to fail America then a decade-long debate will lead to the market making transactions in Yuan instead of the Dollar.
