FameEX Hot Topics | Other Countries Eager to Fill the Vacuum Left by the US

2023-03-27 10:39:25

Coinbase, one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges in the US, has accused the country's regulators of leaving a void in the industry that other nations are keen to fill. The comment came after the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued a Wells notice to Coinbase, indicating that the agency may take enforcement action over possible securities violations concerning some of the company's asset listings, staking services and Coinbase Wallet. In a blog post titled “Europe is winning. Will the US catch up?” Daniel Seifert, Coinbase's Vice President and regional managing director in Europe, claimed that the US regulatory approach to cryptocurrency has been inconsistent and reactive, which has created a “vacuum” that other countries are eager to fill.


Seifert also cited the Paris Blockchain Week at the Louvre this month, as well as the UK's recent drive to become a crypto hub, and the European Union's Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation, which is set to take effect in 2024. According to him, these are examples of how other countries are taking the lead in the cryptocurrency space. Seifert emphasized that the US's regulatory approach to crypto has been marked by enforcement rather than comprehensive regulation, despite calls from the industry for greater clarity.


Coinbase is one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges globally and was the first to go public. The exchange's success has been attributed to its compliance with US laws and regulations. However, its recent legal troubles with the SEC, coupled with Seifert's comments, suggest that the company may be reconsidering its relationship with the US. It is not the first time that a US-based company has expressed dissatisfaction with the country's regulatory landscape, and it may not be the last.


The comments by Coinbase's Vice President underscore the importance of clear and consistent regulation in the cryptocurrency industry. As more countries seek to establish themselves as leaders in the sector, the lack of regulatory clarity in the US may cause it to fall behind. The situation also highlights the need for more cooperation and collaboration among regulators worldwide to ensure that the industry can thrive while still maintaining consumer protection.
