Speaking with Bloomberg Technology’s Emily Chang, the Coinbase President discussed crypto in 2022 and the need for clear regulation. During the interview, Emilie Choi was asked if she believes 2021 was the year when people started to gravitate toward mainstream adoption or if that is yet to come. Choi responded: Choi asserted that usability is undoubtedly an essential component, along with some amount of legal certainty, for taking crypto adoption to the next level. 

Regulation in the U.S.

Regarding regulation, Choi emphasized that more clarity surrounding cryptocurrency legislation in the United States would be critical to the space’s development. Alesia Haas, the Chief Financial Officer of Coinbase, was one of the speakers who appeared before the House Financial Services Committee last week to discuss digital assets and the future of finance.  Choi said that she was encouraged by the hearing and believes that politicians in the United States are keen to learn more about cryptocurrency. She also stated that innovation and entrepreneurship might migrate abroad if regulatory uncertainty persists.  She went on to say that, although Coinbase is looking forward to continuing to grow its U.S. business, the firm is also investing substantially in worldwide development at the same time.
