28 Mai, 2021by Laura Shin

House Representative Tom Emmer, of Minnesota, is one of the most active voice for crypto and blockchain in the US government. In this episode, he discusses:

• what book made Tom fall down the crypto rabbit hole 
• why Tom believes the Financial Accounting Standards Board needs to set clear accounting standards for cryptocurrencies
• why the current way of accounting for Bitcoin on balance sheets may be a detriment to companies in the future
• how he feels about the acting head of the OCC putting together a “sprint team” of federal regulators to establish overarching crypto standards
• why he is fighting to change tax rules for forked coins
• what problems the Eliminate Barriers to Innovation Act might solve
• why he is so passionate about the Securities Clarity Act, which would explicitly separate digital tokens from securities
• how DeFi should be regulated and why he is not a fan of FATF’s recently proposed guidance
• Tom’s prediction for when these bills may actually become law
