Gary Gensler Says Bitcoin Is "Not That Decentralized’'

🔵
In a new interview on CNBC, #Gensler says #Bitcoin (BTC) isn't as #decentralized as commonly believed, citing centralized #crypto exchanges as a factor.

🔵 Gensler argues that Bitcoin's decentralization should not be solely attributed to its availability on various exchanges but rather to its underlying blockchain technology.

🔵 Gensler echoes sentiments from JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon, asserting that BTC is often used in #ransomware attacks.

🔵 He emphasizes the difference between traditional currencies like the US dollar, euro, and yen, which have #centralized support, and Bitcoin, which lacks such backing. Gensler suggests that Bitcoin's transparent ledger might mislead investors about its decentralization.

Gary
Gensler on Ethereum.

Gary #Gensler had appeared on CNBC discussing #Ethereum, once more evading questions on whether Ethereum was a security.

Both #XRP and #ETH hadn't met security criteria. The real issue was the alleged misinformation provided to Congress by Gensler and the SEC. The debate should have shifted to addressing the integrity of information presented to legislative bodies.

2️⃣ Will #Gensler Approve the ETH ETF?
Everyone's betting on a 'no,' but with Dems realizing their anti-crypto SEC chair might cost them the election, Thursday's decision could be a game-changer!

3️⃣ Will the House Pass the #FITBill?
Major crypto legislation, led by a pro-crypto Republican contingent, is up for a vote by Wed/Thurs. Will it pass?
