Description

Over the past few weeks, we've seen US regulators, both federal and state in some cases -  take aim at crypto companies with accusations of fraud and unregistered securities offerings. 
These moves sent shockwaves through the digital asset industry.  And the new regulations have also raised concerns about potential over regulation.
On the other side of the Atlantic, the UK and EU are taking a different approach. 
The UK Treasury has recently proposed new rules for crypto-related businesses aimed at stepping up transparency and consumer protection. This, as the planned EU's Markets in Crypto Assets (MiCA) regulation seeks to provide a clear legal framework for digital assets across all member states.
Joining senior editor Philip Lagerkranser to discuss the crypto regulation competition across Europe is Bloomberg reporter Emily Nicolle.

Crypto is the world's hottest financial trend. Digital tokens like Bitcoin and NFTs have moved from niche products to showing up in Super Bowl commercials and song lyrics.  Advocates of these new asset classes promise they will democratize the finance industry, and they hail the blockchain technology that backs it all as the future of computing. Skeptics say it's another financial house of cards. No newsroom on the planet is better equipped than Bloomberg to cut through all the noise and provide clarity, context and authority. In this new daily podcast, Bloomberg’s reporting team will tease out what’s actually important in the crypto conversation. Led by crypto expert Stacy-Marie Ishmael, the podcast will draw on reporters in every region and credible voices in the industry to cover everything from regulation to alt coins to DeFi, and even the environmental impact of the currency that promises to change the finance landscape indefinitely.
