# Staying Ahead of the Curve: Crypto Regulation and Competitiveness: Crypto Regulatory Uncertainty and U.S. Competitiveness 

While much of the world advances regulation for crypto asset markets, the United States has yet to provide a stable and practical framework for U.S. crypto policy. Against the backdrop of last year’s failure of crypto exchange FTX and the Securities and Exchange Commission’s continued aggressive enforcement agenda against the crypto industry, congressional debate on regulatory frameworks for crypto asset markets and stablecoins has intensified. Legislative action to provide clarity, however, remains a work in progress. Does unclear regulation of crypto assets threaten the United States’ position as a financial leader? Will uncertainty drive digital innovation from U.S. shores? Is delay in enacting a fit‐​for‐​purpose regulatory regime harming U.S. entrepreneurs, developers, and users? How should new financial technologies that are designed to be open‐​source and decentralized be regulated? Join us at Cato’s Center for Monetary and Financial Alternatives Annual Conference for an outstanding program featuring leading policymakers and experts discussing crypto regulation.
