Gensler’s Critique of Crypto
Gensler pointed out that there are many “bad actors” within the crypto space. He asserted that most cryptocurrencies, apart from Bitcoin $93,691 and Ethereum $3,255, are unlikely to survive, emphasizing that many projects operate in a non-compliant manner while raising funds from the community.
He indicated that the SEC has made significant progress in the XRP case, addressing concerns raised by previous chairs. The SEC has filed a lawsuit against Ripple $2 for securities violations, alongside actions against its co-founder Chris Larsen and CEO Brad Garlinghouse.
Overview of the Crypto Sector
Gensler stressed that the crypto sector lacks a solid foundation, with the majority of projects driven by emotions.
He predicted that thousands of crypto projects would not survive, warning about pump-and-dump schemes. He labeled figures like Sam Bankman-Fried, CZ, and Do Kwon as “celebrities” who caused billions in losses for investors.
