#CryptoRoundTableRemarks The last round table on crypto by the SEC, major voices spoke on DeFi, code, and regulation:

• SEC Chair, Atkins: "Engineers should not be held responsible for how others use their code."

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

• Erik Voorhees: "Smart contracts represent a step-up improvement over human regulators."

• Others argued that decentralization is not lawless — it is transparent, predictable, and user-oriented.
