Jason Gottlieb Authors Bloomberg Article Calling for Flexible Legal Framework for Crypto Market
Partner Jason Gottlieb authored a June 13 article in Bloomberg Law entitled “The Crypto Market of the Future Needs a Flexible Legal Framework.” In it, he called for dynamic federal regulations that support innovation in cryptocurrency, rather than demonize an industry that is part of a larger digital future.
Jason wrote that as Congress again takes up the question of legislating digital assets and the SEC launches new broadsides against major industry players, it’s important to remember what’s at stake in the fight over digital assets. “This fight isn’t just about cryptocurrency,” he wrote. “It’s a much larger battle for the right to your digital life, and whether you actually own or control any part of it.”
As Jason pointed out, our money, our entertainment, our communications and our own public persona are all already enabled by digital assets.
“America needs, as soon as possible, a legislative framework to allow experimentation and innovation, to let our most creative minds find ways to develop privacy and security controls over our personal assets, and to ensure that your digital assets—the lifeblood of the next century—remain personal, in your control, and not for sale for others’ profit,” he wrote.
