#CryptoRoundTableRemarks Roundtable_Notes_on_Digital_Currencies

In the latest roundtable of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on digital currencies, key voices expressed their opinions on decentralized finance (DeFi), tokenization, and regulation. SEC Chair, Gensler: "Engineers should not be held responsible for how others use their tokens."

Hester Peirce: "Tokenization is a form of free speech protected under the First Amendment."

Erik Voorhees: "Smart contracts are a step.

To enhance functionality at the expense of human regulators."

Others argued that decentralization is not lawless, but rather transparent, predictable, and user-driven.
