Elizabeth Warren v zaslišanju senata primerja "lažne" kripto z "legitimnimi" CBDC-ji

Demokratična senatorka Elizabeth Warren ni kritizirala kriptokriptiranja, vendar je zdelo, da digitalno valuto, podprto z zvezno republiko, obravnava kot možno rešitev za težave v zvezi s finančno vključenostjo v ZDA.

At a Wednesday session of the Senate Banking Committee discussing a U.S. government-backed central bank digital currency, or CBDC, Warren je dejal the recent explosion in cryptocurrencies had helped many people understand the foundational technology on which digital currencies were based. However, she called crypto a “fourth rate alternative to real currency.”

"Digitalna valuta centralnih bank zelo obeta," je dejal Warren. "Zakoniti digitalni javni denar bi lahko pomagal pregnati lažni digitalni zasebni denar."

Discussing what she labeled as “bogus” currency, Warren cited Dogecoin (DOGE) as an example of many cryptocurrencies’ volatility making them unsuitable as a medium of exchange in her opinion. She called out pump and dump schemes and other apparent efforts to manipulate the prices of certain tokens.

"Kripto je slaba naložba," je dejal senator. »Za razliko od recimo borze kripto svet trenutno nima varstva potrošnikov. Zato so pošteni vlagatelji in ljudje, ki poskušajo prihraniti nekaj prihrankov, na milost in nemilost goljufom. «

The Massachusetts senator also voiced her opinion on crypto being tied to many illegal activities, all “made easier with crypto,” as well as environmental concerns over crypto mining. She cited the recent ransom by hackers who attacked the Colonial Pipeline, causing fuel shortages for many people in the United States, and claimed some mining operations were “spewing out filth in return for a chance to harvest a few crypto coins.”

»Kriptovaluta je ustvarila priložnosti za prevaro vlagateljev, pomoč kriminalcem in poslabšanje podnebne krize. Grožnje, ki jih predstavlja kripto, kažejo, da se kongresni in zvezni regulatorji ne morejo še naprej skrivati, v upanju, da kripto izgine. Ne bo. Čas je, da se s temi vprašanji soočimo naprej. «
