The comprehensive complaint against Binance and CZ differs significantly from the lawsuit against Coinbase. And do we trust tech more than people?
ABOUT
This episode is sponsored by EY.
The process of rule-making to determine a ‘Security’ is an unsettled issue that may need to be resolved in court. And separately, why the rise of AI, requires effective governance.
On this episode of “Money Reimagined,” Michael Casey and Sheila Warren first, examine the latest regulatory news concerning the SEC's suit against both Binance and Coinbase, as well as the implications for the crypto industry and all government agencies. They are then joined by Kurt Hemecker; COO of the Mina Foundation, the public benefit corporation serving the Mina Protocol, to discuss a different area of regulation; artificial intelligence governance.
