Coinbase, Robinhood and CFTC To Testify Over Draft Crypto Bill

Now, it has been learned that Coinbase, Robinhood and representatives from the US commodities regulator are gearing up to testify before Congress to discuss the draft Crypto bill on June 6, 2023.

Rostin Behnam, Chairman, Commodity Futures Trading Commission said he will be testifying on Capitol Hill before the House Committee on Agriculture to share Coinbase’s views on the Digital Asset Market Structure Discussion Draft that was released on June 2.

Paul Grewal, the Chief Legal Officer of Coinbase has mentioned in a published article that “Crypto is solving real-world problems and we need a clear path forward to protect responsible innovation.”

He also opined that it is essential for Congress to establish clear boundaries regarding the regulation of digital assets and the underlying technology.

These boundaries should determine when digital assets should be treated as commodities, when they should be considered securities, and when certain financial regulations may not be applicable or would lack logical reasoning.

Paul Grewal also commented that the new draft is a “thoughtful effort” and “a major step forward,” urging the lawmakers from both sides of the aisle to act on it as soon as possible.
