Vivek slams Gary Gensler and ‘three-letter agencies’ during pres debate
U.S. presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy slammed Gary Gensler and the SEC at the Republican Party presidential debate.
United States presidential hopeful Vivek Ramaswamy came down hard on Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chair Gary Gensler and other “three-letter agencies” during the Nov. 6 Republican Party presidential debate, claiming regulators had failed to keep up with crypto.
Ramaswamy said it was “nothing short of embarrassing” that Gensler couldn’t admit before Congress that Ethereum’s native currency, Ether (ETH), should be considered a commodity.
Ramaswamy is one of a few presidential candidates who have made crypto a central theme of their campaign. Notably, he is the only Republican presidential candidate to unveil a crypto policy framework.
