The continuous campaign of the industry against the debate of the companies and cryptographic leaders has obtained a legislative impulse of a superior American senator, Tim Scott, who defends a bill that would eliminate the capacity of federal banking regulators to use the “risk of reputation” as a reason to move clients away.
This practice had been cited by Republicans as a problematic area in the recent hearings of the Congress, which examined how digital asset companies had been systematically eliminated from US banking relations due to the perceptions that regulators, including the Federal Reserve, Federal Deposit Instance Corp. and the Office of the Contral of La Moneda, did not want them there.
As president of the Senate Banking Committee, Tim Scott of South Carolina has gathered other Republicans in that panel to support the bill, the Law on the Management of Integrity and Financial Regulation, or the Signature Law, which reduces that phrase of the evaluation of the regulators of the security and solidity of a bank.
“It is clear that federal regulators have abused the risk of reputation by carrying out a political agenda against legally federal legal companies,” Scott said in a statement on the bill, who said that ending with the debateking is among its main priorities. “This legislation, which eliminates all references to the risk of reputation in regulatory supervision, is the first step to end the debate once and for all.”
Senator Cynthia Lummis, a Wyoming Republican who is the leader of the Digital Assets Subcommittee, had recently raised this specific point as a concern with the supervision of the Federal Reserve.
“Americans deserve a transparent regulatory framework that foster innovation in digital assets instead of quelling it with government overreach,” he said in a statement.
Consumer defenders and several Democrats, including Senator Elizabeth Warren, have argued that the regulators’ approach in digital assets had been justified after the collapse of several important companies, fraud charges against industry leaders, the main routine hacks of digital asset platforms and generally volatile markets have raised threats to threats to Investor safety.
