“I do think it would be helpful if there were a greater regulatory apparatus around crypto, and I think that’s something that Congress was working on quite a lot. We’ve actually spent a lot of time with members of Congress working together with them on various things, and I think that would be a very constructive thing for Congress to do.”
Powell added that the Fed’s role in examining the relationship between banks and crypto is to analyze banks. He also acknowledged the industry’s regulatory challenges and said “a greater regulatory apparatus” would be helpful.
