U.S. House Committee on Financial Services Republicans stated that the US SEC’s regulation by enforcement regime pushes innovations in the crypto industry overseas. It added that the commission’s practices are threatening American investors and competitiveness.
However, Financial Services GOP mentioned that the Republicans will be providing regulatory clarity for digital assets to protect the technology in the nation.
Susan Friedman, International Policy Counsel at Ripple highlighted that the fears regarding innovation moving overseas are not overstated. She added that key crypto industry players are already migrating to places like Europe.

Coingape reported that the EU parliament endorsed the first rules to trace crypto-asset transfers and prevent money laundering. The lawmakers gave the MiCA the green light by voting 517 in favor to 38 against. The legal draft agreed informally with the Council back in June 2022 citing safeguards against market manipulation and financial crime.
Ripple Policy Counsel called in for Europe where the crypto rule is on the road to clarity due to MiCA. She stated that US regulatory paralysis is real and holds a measurable impact in terms of jobs and investment lost due to it.
