European Central Bank (ECB) governing council member Villeroy de Galhau has called for faster adoption of crypto regulations. The statement came amid the growing crypto market which looks set to get back to its Pre-May market crash levels very soon. Villeroy who has been a big advocate for banks and CBDC in general believes the crypto market is moving at a fast pace and being a trillion-dollar economy, it needs to be brought under the regulatory framework.

Villeroy has also advocated for Central Banks to hold control of the crypto market and has warned against the probable dominance of Digital Yuan, the CBDC developed by the Chinese government. Villeroy also serves as the President of the Bank of France and his call for faster adoption of crypto regulations could indicate stricter measures to take control of the crypto market rather than a crypto-centric regulation that would help it flourish further.
