⚖️ #CryptoRoundTableRemarks

Should DeFi developers be held accountable as financial institutions, or protected like open-source developers?

🔹 SEC Chair Statement: "Engineers should not be held accountable for how others use their code."

🔹 Hester Peirce: "Code is speech protected under the First Amendment."

🔹 Erik Voorhees: "Smart contracts are a significant advancement that surpasses human regulation."

🔹 Others see decentralization not as chaos, but as transparency and predictability.

💡 My Opinion:

DeFi does not mean the absence of rules, but rather their technical and clear application. Smart contract developers should be protected as long as they are not involved in direct fraudulent activities. Regulation should evolve to include **accountability at the outcome level, not just code writing**.

📈 The future is code-driven finance, and the smart move is for regulators to collaborate with developers instead of fighting them.

What do you think? Should DeFi developers be treated like banks?
