#CryptoRoundTableRemarks In the latest SEC crypto roundtable, key voices shared their opinions on DeFi, code, and regulation:
• SEC Chair Atkins: "Engineers should not be held responsible for how others use their code."
• Hester Peirce: "Code is speech protected under the First Amendment."
• Erik Voorhees: "Smart contracts are a step-function improvement over human regulators."
• Others argue that decentralization is not lawless — it is transparent, predictable, and driven by users.
