#CryptoRoundTableRemarks
During the last SEC roundtable on cryptocurrencies, major voices spoke on DeFi, code, and regulation:
• SEC Chairwoman, Atkins: "Engineers should not be held responsible for the use of their code by others."
• Hester Peirce: "Code is protected speech under the First Amendment."
• Erik Voorhees: "Smart contracts represent a functional improvement over human regulators."
• Others argued that decentralization is not lawless — it is transparent, predictable, and user-driven.
