SEC’s Hester Peirce Demands Crypto Clarity at Bitcoin 2025: ’Regulators Are Playing Catch-Up’
SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce—dubbed ’Crypto Mom’ by the industry—took center stage at Bitcoin 2025 with a blistering critique of U.S. crypto regulation. Her message? Stop kicking the can and legislate already.
While Wall Street dithers over tokenized coffee futures, Peirce argues the real risk isn’t innovation—it’s driving builders offshore. The crowd ate it up. After all, nothing unites crypto like a common enemy: regulatory theater.
