I expect that oversight of the VCM will continue to be largely thru voluntary bodies like the Integrity Council for the VCM. I realize that California has sought to be more active in this area … but that seems to be motivated by animus toward the VCM rather than a genuine effort to ensure integrity.

It’s hard to see why the new admin would want to exert *less* oversight than that (or why they would bother)
Meanwhile, the federal govt has not weighed in on what claims companies can make & it’s not clear what authority it would have to do so anyway. (2/3)

I don’t know, Severin. As you know the voluntary market is just that — voluntary. There’s not really much to “deregulate.”
I was pretty involved with the CFTC announcement behind the scenes and while significant, from a legal perspective it is just nonenforceable guidance for exchanges. (1/3)
