“Smart Contracts vs. Human Law: Round 1”
Transparency, automation, no middlemen. That’s DeFi at its best.
But regulators are asking: Who do we hold accountable when things go wrong?
At the SEC’s recent crypto summit, Chair Mark Uyeda made headlines:
> “Engineers shouldn’t be liable for how others use their code.”
Supporters argue this is essential for innovation.
But critics say that DeFi developers know exactly what their smart contracts do — and must own the consequences.
This isn’t just about law. It’s about power.
As finance becomes more like software, the real question is: Do we regulate the tool, or the toolmaker?
DeFi builders are pushing boundaries — but regulation is catching up fast.
Expect more court cases, more oversight… and maybe fewer anonymous devs.
🌀 If DeFi is to thrive, it needs rules — but not handcuffs.
What’s your take — protect the coder, or prosecute the architect?
