Cryptocurrency: A Commodity, a Security, or a Scam?
from Future-Ready Business · host Jackson Walker LLP
Despite recent setbacks and scandals, cryptocurrency and other blockchain technologies are increasingly being utilized in the finance and corporate world. However, transitioning to legitimacy also means regulation, which raises new questions about how cryptocurrencies will be treated by government agencies such as the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC). On this episode of FRB, we explore what cryptocurrency is, how various types differ from one another, and how they could potentially fit into our country’s regulatory framework.
