Lily Liu on why US crypto regulation matters
"The United States is about 15% of global GDP, but 50-60% of global capital markets."
"We came from a very hostile administration from 2020 to 2024. Now it's a very crypto-friendly administration… but you can have a sea change again."
"Legislation that codifies regulation, rather than regulating through enforcement, is a really important thing for us to get right."
"The CLARITY Act would do the same for non-payments use cases… regulated financial institutions being able to jump in from the commodities angle, from trading, from markets, from banking."
