State of Legislation, Regulation and Policy
summary
Panelists catalog concrete policy moves: a lawsuit is filed challenging the expanded 6050i reporting rule (suing Treasury over 6050i), FinCEN’s 2019 guidance still shields software developers from MSB rules, and a recent Senate bill aims to clarify the CFTC’s role while the Responsible Financial Innovation Act offers a broad framework. Regulators propose worrying shifts — a Mnuchin-era rule targets unhosted wallet counterparty data and the SEC floats an exchange definition that could treat protocol code as regulated activity — and DeFi-focused rules are flagged as the next major battleground.
