Gensler is About to Get Flushed Out of SEC and That's Bullish for Crypto


Gary Gensler, probably the most hated "anti-decentralized crypto" SEC chairman that has ever existed, is now in danger of losing "his position" as the "honorable SEC chairman," and here is why...

US Congressman Warren Davidson has introduced a bill to restructure the SEC and fire Chairman Gary Gensler, and most of the motives invoked by Davidson for such a bill proposal are related to Gensler's incompetence.

This guy couldn't answer a simple question during a recent hearing while shaking in his attempt to diverge from the waited answer for the question: "Is Ether a security?" Yeah, the man whom many feared when it came to crypto regulations in the US has no answer to such a question.

Now, I'm not an American, so I shouldn't care much about what happens in America related to crypto, but Gensler should also be questioned about his dealings with SBF, as he's so bold about bank runs being crypto's fault... No shit?!

I don't know what exactly is brewing in America regarding crypto, but the situation doesn't look too rosy, in my opinion. Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong indicated that the crypto exchange would consider moving away from the US if the regulatory environment for the industry does not become clearer.

This one reminds me of Binance leaving China due to the communist crackdown on the crypto industry that took place a few years ago. If Coinbase leaves the US, such an event will have a major impact on both the market and retail investors' access to "regulated on and off-ramps" for crypto in the states.

It seems that Armstrong has already paved the way for alternative locations for Coinbase, and my take is that the UAE will be on the map. The Arabs have for a couple of years made it clear that they're open to crypto businesses, and probably the UK will follow suit.

And there's more...

"The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) recently excluded the World Bank from its regulatory oversight. The move, which was met with criticism from some industry experts, means that the World Bank will not be required to comply with SEC regulations related to securities offerings."

This is probably why Gensler needs to go down... While the political system is pretty crooked in America too, same as in most countries around the world, there are a few pro-crypto senators out there who won't let the industry simply leave the country so others would profit off it.

On one hand, there are plenty who say that you can't have "a safe environment" without regulations, but on the other, too much regulation can stifle innovation and development. Either way, Gensler has to be flushed out of the SEC. The man did nothing to innovate and encourage the industry for further developments.

If he wasn't the SEC's chairman, America would probably have had a Bitcoin spot ETF by now. Not that such a trading option would matter that much for Bitcoin's mass adoption, but if other countries such as Switzerland and Germany have it, why wouldn't the epitome of democracy be in such a position?

Thanks for your attention,
Adrian
