SEC Commissioner Esther Pierce is known in the United States as a supporter of the early legalization of the cryptosphere.
It is she, along with her like-minded people, who lobbies for the digital asset recognition program.
She reiterated her concern this week over Washington's delays in legalizing the industry. Such a policy leads to the fact that the United States is losing its status as an economic power, Pearce said.

In her opinion, it is necessary to approve the launch of bitcoin ETF crypto funds as soon as possible. For example, Canada has already taken a step in this direction, said the SEC Commissioner at the online conference The B Word, which was also attended by Elon Musk and Jack Dorsey.
Esther Pierce has once again criticized the actions of American regulators. According to her, the country's authorities are making a gross mistake by creating obstacles for investors who are ready to invest in digital assets.
At the moment, the SEC is considering more than ten applications for the launch of a Bitcoin ETF. The regulator has not yet approved any of them.
