Garlinghouse stressed on the importance of finding the right balance for crypto in terms of codifying the rules and imposing regulation.

How Far Is Crypto From Regulation

The Ripple CEO explained the need for defining what are the safe practices to follow within the crypto regulatory space. He took the example of the UAE’s work on codifying the regulatory scope. Garlinghouse was speaking as part of a panel of speakers at the World Economic Forum in Davos. He also explained how close is Ripple to being regulated as its customers as a cross border payments platform are banks.

“The UAE has done the work to codify what the regulations are. The challenge is that a lot of players in the crypto space want to be good actors. There has to be clarity on what that means though.”
