In contrast to Europe, where Markets in Crypto Assets (MiCA) serves as a comprehensive regulatory framework, the United States has lacked a coordinated federal approach to regulating crypto assets. Our panelists will update the state of the struggle between Congress, the SEC and CFTC, and courts to define AML obligations and other requirements for crypto exchanges, miners and other virtual asset service providers. They’ll also  examine the current stablecoin landscape, and look at whether court proceedings verify or undercut the regulation-by-enforcement approach that is applying securities law to many crypto transactions.
