2022-12-21 16:45:19 US senator questioned the need to ban cryptocurrencies

The cryptocurrency industry needs stricter rules, but it is hardly worth taking the position of a total ban on this issue. This opinion was expressed by Senator from Minnesota (USA) Tina Smith on NBC.

Smith, along with colleagues from the Democratic Party, led a campaign calling for tighter regulation. When asked whether crypto should be considered a commodity, she called providing consumer protection a real challenge and urged the SEC to use its experience to do this.

“We know how to protect consumers in this country from dubious financial transactions and from unethical players like, apparently, FTX […]. I'm not saying that the Commodity Futures Trading Commission [CFTC] doesn't play an important role. But I think the problem is how to make sure there are basic consumer protections in place so that people don't get ripped off,” Smith explained. Open / Comment

2022-12-21 16:30:09 Peter Schiff: “BTC will not recover even if other assets start to rise”

Cryptocurrency skeptic Peter Schiff took to Twitter to share his thoughts on the prospects for Bitcoin. He believes that the first cryptocurrency will no longer be able to return to its previous level. The economist also questioned the scarcity of bitcoin. He believes that despite the limited supply of BTC of 21 million coins, it cannot be called the most desirable asset in the world.

“Bitcoin is not a financial asset. This is a collectible digital token. As long as people are stupid enough to buy bitcoin, its value will rise. There are many fools in the world, but unfortunately there are few left for Bitcoin holders who want to buy this cryptocurrency. The bitcoin bubble has already burst, and collectors will sell it, no matter what happens in the financial market,” wrote Schiff. Open / Comment
