Crypto regulation must go through Congress for lasting change — Wiley Nickel

Crypto regulations must be enacted through an act of Congress to become permanent and meaningful pieces of legislation, according to former Congressman Wiley Nickel. In an exclusive video interview with Cointelegraph's Turner Wright, Nickel urged bipartisan collaboration to push through comprehensive crypto regulations. The former Congressman added: "I think it's really important for anybody who cares about this issue to step back and realize that if you want lasting change in Washington, you must move legislation through Congress. Otherwise, if you're talking about executive orders, it will just go back and forth.” “You don’t want to have the mess that we saw just months ago with Gary Gensler’s SEC — you need to get legislation through Congress,” Nickel reiterated. President Trump’s Jan. 23 executive order establishing the Working Group on Digital Assets , which also prohibited the development of a central bank digital currency (CBDC), and the order establishing a Bitcoin strategic reserve alongside a separate crypto stockpile, were both examples of executive actions that can be reversed at a later date.
