The Biden administration is talking about cryptocurrency regulation
On Friday, the White House released its roadmap for 2023 regulating the cryptocurrency ecosystem. Not surprisingly, the Biden administration is thus calling for continued efforts to regulate the industry under the usual excuses of financial stability and investor protection.
So, a retrospective of 2022 is being prepared regarding the crises experiencedGiven the collapse of the UST and the FTX scam:
“2022 has been a difficult year for cryptocurrencies. In May, the so-called stablecoin caused a wave of bankruptcies. A few months later, a major cryptocurrency exchange collapsed. Many ordinary investors […] suffered serious losses, but fortunately the turmoil in the cryptocurrency market has so far had little negative impact on the broader financial system. »

In late 2018, I bravely discovered the world of blockchain during my quest for financial freedom. I was modestly invested in the beginning, only two years later I took the gamble of betting everything on the then emerging movement. Then I dedicate 2021 to train myself better to gain more knowledge and rigor. As I often like to say: I still have a billion things to learn. And I want to share what I know with you.
