Maxine Waters Says 'Crypto Is Inevitable,' Other Countries Are 'Way Ahead' Of The United States

Benzinga ·  09/26 13:20

Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.), a key Democrat and influential voice in the House Financial Services Committee, has been a vocal critic of the crypto sector over the past two years.

加州衆議員Maxine Waters(民主黨)是衆議院金融服務委員會的關鍵民主黨人士和有影響力的發言人,在過去兩年裏一直是加密板塊的堅決批評者。

What Happened: In an interview with Punchbowl News, Waters now acknowledged a shift in her perspective on the industry, stating, "Crypto is inevitable. There are countries that are way ahead of us."

事件經過:在接受Punchbowl News採訪時,Waters如今承認她對這個行業的看法發生了轉變,稱"加密是不可避免的。有些國家在這方面領先於我們。"

This marks a notable change in tone for Waters, who has previously focused on advocating strict regulatory measures for the crypto sector.

這標誌着Waters口吻上發生了顯著改變,之前她一直着力主張對加密板塊實施嚴格的監管措施。

The political environment around crypto has evolved recently, and the changing stance among Democrats may have influenced Waters' outlook.

最近,圍繞加密的政治環境有所演變,民主黨人士的立場變化可能影響了Waters的觀點。

Vice President Kamala Harris has started to adopt a more business-friendly approach, including a cautious acceptance of crypto.

副總統賀錦麗開始採取更加親商的態度,包括對加密的謹慎接受。

Earlier this month, during a fundraiser, Harris indicated her administration's intent to "encourage innovative technologies like AI and digital assets while protecting our consumers and investors."

本月初,在一次籌款活動中,賀錦麗表示她的政府打算"鼓勵人工智能和數字資產等創新技術,同時保護我們的消費者和投資者。"

Waters' comments were made in response to questions about her current views on the sector in light of Harris's recent position.

Waters的評論是針對有關她對該行業的當前看法的問題而發表的,這是針對賀錦麗最近立場的回應。

While she maintains her commitment to investor protection, her acknowledgment of crypto's inevitability signals a more open stance: "The crypto companies want support the way they want to have it. We can't do that. There's got to be guardrails so that we protect consumers. But, you know, people are going to have to come to an agreement that yes, we are not afraid of crypto, we're not opposed to crypto, but we are very much aware that investors have to be protected."

儘管她堅持保護投資者的承諾,但她對加密貨幣不可避免性的認可表明了更加開放的態度:「加密公司希望以他們想要的方式得到支持。我們不能這樣做。必須設立防範措施,以保護消費者。但是,你知道,人們必須達成一致,是的,我們不害怕加密貨幣,我們也不反對加密貨幣,但我們非常清楚投資者必須得到保護。」

Should Democrats regain control of the House in November, Waters is poised to reclaim her position as chair of the Financial Services Committee.

如果民主黨在11月重新獲得衆議院的控制權,沃特世將有望重新獲得金融服務委員會主席職位。

During her time as the ranking member, she has consistently voiced opposition to many of the crypto industry's legislative priorities, including the FIT for the 21st Century Act, which passed the House with 71 votes in May.

在擔任排名委員期間,她始終對許多加密行業的立法優先事項表示反對,包括21世紀適應法案,該法案於5月以71票通過了衆議院。

Waters criticized the bill, stating it "would deregulate a substantial portion of the crypto industry" and urged fellow Democrats to resist: "Don't be afraid of Big Crypto and stand for everyday investors and consumers."

沃特世批評了這項法案,稱其「將使大部分加密行業取消監管」,並敦促同僚民主黨人抵制:「不要害怕大型加密貨幣,要站在普通投資者和消費者一邊。」

Despite her past resistance, Waters is now hinting at a potential shift. She referenced international developments in digital currencies, admitting, "I think we may even be behind, as I look worldwide, on digital."

儘管曾經持續抵制,但沃特世現在暗示可能會發生轉變。她提到了數字貨幣的國際發展情況,承認:「我認爲,在全球範圍內看,我們可能要落後於數字貨幣。」

This new openness to dialogue was further underscored earlier this week when she called for a "grand bargain" on stablecoins during a discussion with senior officials from the Securities and Exchange Commission.

在本週早些時候,她與證券交易委員會的高級官員討論時呼籲就穩定幣達成「大交易」。“

What's Next: The evolving landscape around crypto regulation will likely be a key topic at Benzinga's Future of Digital Assets event on Nov. 19, where leaders and policymakers will explore the impact of regulations and global developments on the digital asset market.

接下來會發生什麼:在11月19日Benzinga數字資產未來活動上,圍繞加密貨幣監管的不斷變化的形勢可能成爲一個關鍵議題,領導者和政策制定者將探討法規和全球發展對數字資產市場的影響。
