U.S. Senator Cynthia Lummis warned in an interview with CNBC's Squawk Box that the United States is lagging behind in digital asset regulation, especially compared to the European Union. "The EU is ahead of us," Lummis said, and stressed the importance of the United States taking the lead in financial services and digital asset regulation. She went on to criticize the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) heavy-handed enforcement tactics, especially under the leadership of Chairman Gary Gensler. (DLNews)
