The SEC commissioner explains why the SEC’s approach has been “too slow and too ambiguous” and why she’s optimistic for 2021. 

Hester Peirce is a commissioner at the Securities Exchange Commission, sworn in for her second term in August. 

Sometimes referred to as “Crypto Mom,” Peirce has been a fierce advocate for the industry in a regulatory context that hasn’t always been on her side. 

In this conversation, she and NLW discuss:

  • Why the SEC’s approach on crypto has been too slow and too ambiguous
  • Why it matters that FinHub is becoming a standalone office
  • The prospect for a regulatory “safe harbor” for crypto
  • What the SEC thinks of the OCC’s crypto custody guidance
  • The prospect for a bitcoin (BTC, -0.62%) exchange-traded fund
