Presidential candidate Andrew Yang on cryptocurrency in a Jan. 29 interview with Bloomberg:
"We need to have a uniform set of rules and regulations around cryptocurrency use nationwide because right now we're stuck with this hodgepodge of state-by-state treatments and that's bad for everybody.
....
My priority is transparent rules so that everyone knows where they can head in the future and that we can maintain competitiveness, because to me the underlying technology of cryptocurrencies is very very high potential and we should be investing in it.
....
Right now, the people who are investing in these currencies are finding a way to make use of their investments. No, I don't think you can impede it with regulation if you tried."
