White House Releases Crypto Framework

Growing industry needs timely rulemaking from Administration

Sep 16, 2022

On Friday, President Biden released a Framework for the Responsible Development of Digital Assets, aggregating agency feedback and reports responding to the President’s crypto executive order. The new framework calls on federal agencies to tackle a range of issues relating to digital assets including consumer protections, financial stability, fostering innovation, protecting the environment, and strengthening national security.

“Consumers, digital asset companies, and lawmakers all want to see more clear regulation of the crypto industry. Depending on how the President’s federal agencies execute this framework, it has the potential to be a win-win-win,” said Chamber of Progress CEO Adam Kovacevich. “The key to success will be agencies pursuing transparent, public rulemaking processes that consider feedback from all stakeholders, including consumers, entrepreneurs, and industry workers.”

As Congress considers how to move forward on crypto regulation, Chamber of Progress has urged lawmakers to pursue a regulatory framework that encourages innovation and protects consumers. Polling from Chamber of Progress shows that Democratic voters – particularly younger Democrats – are more positive towards pro-crypto public policies than Republican voters.
