Description
Ah, the industry was once so hopeful about Gary Gensler’s appointment to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Yet, as the years have progressed he has become the industry's most aggressive antagonist. In the wake of increasing congressional scrutiny of his dealings with Sam Bankman-Fried and FTX, Gensler is fighting back in media appearances. In today's episode, NLW discusses Gensler's argument that all crypto assets are securities, aside from bitcoin. Enjoying this content?
