Episode description
How are cryptocurrencies treated by the U.S. government? Former Chairman of the CFTC and a pioneer of crypto regulation, Christopher Giancarlo breaks down the crypto-regulatory landscape. Giancarlo explains why some crypto is treated as a commodity, others as a security, while others may not be regulated at all (yet). In a time of extreme volatility in the crypto markets, Giancarlo explores FTX, Bitcoin, stablecoins, DAO's, enforcement actions by the CFTC, the SEC under Chairman Gary Gensler, and the future of crypto regulation. Finally, Giancarlo looks at the "digital dollar" and discusses with Joel how issues such as privacy and the 4th Amendment would apply to U.S. fiat cryptocurrency.
