Mars Finance News, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Commissioner Hester Peirce delivered a speech at the Blockchain Science Conference, calling for regulators to protect individuals' rights to conduct private transactions. She made it clear that developers of open-source privacy software should not be held responsible for the actions of others using their code. In the context of the impending verdict in the case of Tornado Cash co-founder Roman Storm, Peirce emphasized that privacy protection technologies, the right to self-custody of cryptocurrencies, and the rights of open-source privacy software developers should all be protected. She further pointed out that, just as cryptographers in the 1990s fought to defend the private use of strong encryption technologies, these technologies are of significant importance to societal development.
