📣 #CryptoRoundTableRemarks

The latest roundtable by the SEC on cryptocurrencies made it clear that the debate on regulation and DeFi is far from resolved 🔍⚖️. Influential voices offered compelling perspectives on the role of developers, code, and constitutional rights:

🗣️ SEC Chair, Atkins, was blunt: “Engineers should not be held responsible for how others use their code.”

🧠 Hester Peirce, a crypto advocate, reminded that “code is protected speech under the First Amendment.”

⚙️ Erik Voorhees provided a decentralized view: “Smart contracts are a step-up improvement over human regulators.”

Other attendees defended that decentralization is not anarchy, but a more transparent, predictable, and user-centered system 💡.

💬 What do you think?

Should DeFi developers be treated as creators of open-source software or as financial actors?

And how should regulation adapt to this new paradigm without stifling innovation?
