What to expect from crypto regulation in the wake of the FTX scandal,What to expect from crypto regulation in the wake of the FTX scandal,At our TC Sessions: Crypto event last week in Miami, I sat down with Bitwise Asset Management General Counsel and Chief Compliance Officer Katherine Dowling, Perkins Coie Partner Sarah Shtylman and Paradigm Policy Director Justin Slaughter to talk about the crypto regulation landscape, with a specific focus on the U.S. What we didn't know heading into the panel was just how much would change about the industry owing to the fallout from FTX's collapse the week prior. Slaughter in particular felt the impacts of the FTX fiasco firsthand: Paradigm wrote down a $278 million investment in the exchange following its declaration of bankruptcy. The key takeaways that all three panelists essentially agreed upon is that the benefit of the FTX situation is that there's now more impetus than ever to arrive at some kind of regulatory framework specific to crypto in the U.S., and that there's now ample demand from the industry side, as well as an opportunity to further educate regulators since they're looking for illumination coming out of the FTX collapse.
