I have a question for @BrianBrooksUS. As OCC, you stated that there are too many agencies in finance and banking in the U.S. In an interview, you openly questioned: “Do we think it’s best for the Government to build a CBDC or utilize the private sector, which is already built?”
I believe, when you said that, you were referencing, at least in part, #XRP and the #XRPLedger. I say that b/c you stated the technology to build a CBDC was “already built”, but the only issue was with a lack of regulatory clarity. You definitely weren’t referencing #BTC or #ETH.
It wasn’t #BTC or #ETH b/c when you made this statement they enjoyed regulatory clarity by being declared non-securities by the SEC’s leadership plus those two digital assets weren’t associated with payments.
Additionally, you had previously stated that the industry needed to know whether the SEC thinks #XRP is a security. Plus, after Hinman’s speech, the SEC was constantly asked “What about #XRP?”
My question is when you made that comment about CBDCs, were you thinking of #XRP specifically, or crypto assets in general?
