  If you flew an aircraft like this you would (a) stall (b) rip the wings off (c) crash & burn.

  Luckily for us, it’s not the trajectory of a flight vehicle, but rather the US01Y – the risk free interest rate driving the entire $500 trillion global finance system. https://t.co/8ucgR6M2fw

Regulating Crypto…DCCPA & SBF
https://twitter.com/alliancedao/thread/1582800340520312833

Jake Chervinsky @jchervinsky

There’s been some discussion lately as to how the Stabenow-Boozman bill (DCCPA) affects DeFi. Here’s what I said after the Senate Ag hearing on the bill last month. I’m hopeful that it can be amended to treat DeFi fairly, but we’ll have to wait and see what the next draft says.

Jake Chervinsky @jchervinsky

9/ Second, the bill could be interpreted as a ban on DeFi.

The “digital commodity platform” definitions are all designed for centralized custodial markets. Yet, as @SenGillibrand sharply pointed out, they also might capture DeFi protocols—no more than code—which can’t comply.

@SBF_FTX Sam.

With respect.

This absolutely sucks.

You’re saying DeFi should be OFACed.

You’re saying onchain freeze’s should be normal.

You’re saying DeFi front-ends to register as a broker-dealer.

No, this is not reasonable.

This would eliminate the U.S. from the crypto race.
