SEC Commissioner Hester M. Peirce sat down with me at Consensus 2019 to talk about individual responsibility in the crypto space and not relying too heavily on the government's tick of approval.
"People have come to rely too heavily on what they see as an 'SEC seal of approval', and I always say to them, it's not that ... One of the best things we can do as a regulatory body is try to encourage skepticism."
We talk about how regulatory bodies have been doing so far in keeping up with the crypto space, and the future of decentralization and how crypto is making us completely rethink regulation.
Hester Peirce has been a strong supporter of crypto from within the SEC, and I'm very grateful for her time!
