SEC Chair Condemned by Former Advisory Committee Member over Digital Assets Abuse

Rumblings From an Insider

A former member of the United States Security and Exchange Commission has described as totally ridiculous the new regulations of the commission, and he has further claimed that the SEC Chair, Gary Gensler, is culpable of abusing digital assets. The altercation between J.W Verret and Gar Gensler occurred in the course of a meeting of the Security and Exchange Commission, which took place in the past week while Verret’s tenure on the commission’s advisory committee was drawing to a close.

While he left the Security and Exchange advisory committee’s portfolio, Verret, who is a blockchain law associate professor, requested for the commission to open a public feedback option with regards to the digital asset and its regulations so as to encourage freedom in digital assets and at the same time, aid more transparency.

Verret, who holds Ethereum, Bitcoin, and a range of other cryptocurrencies, went ahead to express his concerns over the seemingly arbitrary and irregular execution of security rules and faulty usage of the Howey Test by the Security and Exchange Commission. He subsequently described the present and ongoing attitude of the commission as a cookie-cutter one for using obsolete security laws which do not sufficiently show the outstanding qualities of digital realities.

It’s a Community Desire, Not Just a Man’s

While at that, he equally communicated the perceived general desire of the digital assets community for a set of standard regulations to help them avoid instances like the ongoing SEC vs. Ripple legal battle. Verret had initially mentioned in a different place that he strongly believes that Ripple is with the better side of the legal matter.

In his Genesis Block proposal, Verret has continued to request an honest and transparent discussion between the Security and Exchange Commission and the host of holders of digital assets about the best ways to create regulations that will protect the growing and rapidly enriched finance industry. 

More specifically, Verret has gone far to encourage holders of various digital assets to write their concerns to the commission directly. 

While responding to Verret’s campaign for clear regulations by the SEC, the commission’s Chair, Gar Gensler, said succinctly that Verret’s suggestions always do good in informing the necessary debates, and it is his biggest hope that Verret will find it in his time to continue to be in constant discussion with the Security and Exchange Commission even though he is departing from his advisory role.
