Flexslider Comments Off on SEC and CFTC Talk Virtual Currency at SENATE BANKING COMMITTEE 110

Emerging financial technologies broadly are taking us into a new chapter of economic history. They are impacting trading, markets and the entire financial landscape with far ranging implications for capital formation and risk transfer. They include machine learning and artificial intelligence, algorithm-based trading, data analytics, “smart” contracts valuing themselves and calculating payments in real-time, and distributed ledger technologies, which over time may come to challenge traditional market infrastructure. They are transforming the world around us, and it is no surprise that these technologies are having an equally transformative impact on US capital and derivatives markets. The more specific topic for today’s hearing, however, is virtual currency.  WRITTEN TESTIMONY OF J.
