USA, Donald Trump appointee: “Cryptocurrencies are here to stay”
J. Christopher Giancarlo, Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) chair, made this bullish assurance: “I personally think that cryptocurrencies are here to stay. I think there is a future for them.”
This view was advanced by Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, who said: “I’m not sure they ever come to rival the dollar or other hard currencies, but there’s a whole section of the world that really is hungry for functioning currencies that they can’t find in their local currencies.
Mr. Giancarlo, Tom Fish explains on Express, earned the nicknamed “CryptoDad” following his congressional testimony where he advised legislators to automatically dismiss cryptocurrency just because it appeals more to younger investors.
