The US Treasury requests public comment on digital currency policy

07/12 23:35

According to The Block, the US Treasury is calling for public comment on its still-in-progress digital asset policy. The request comes as the Treasury is working to respond to President Biden’s executive order on cryptocurrencies. The request for public comment went live on the Federal Register on July 8, but the Treasury did not formally announce it until July 12. “For consumers, digital assets may present potential benefits, such as faster payments, as well as potential risks, including risks related to frauds and scams,” said Nellie Liang, the Treasury’s undersecretary for domestic finance, in a statement. The Treasury's announcement also noted concern that digital assets posed a greater risk to vulnerable populations: er risk to vulnerable populations: "The rise in use of digital assets, and differences across communities, may also present disparate financial risk to less informed market participants or exacerbate inequities. It is critical to ensure that digital assets do not pose undue risks to consumers, investors, or businesses, and to put in place protections as a part of efforts to expand access to safe and affordable financial services experienced by more vulnerable populations."
