Emphasizing that several innovations should come for cryptocurrencies, Waters made a written statement as follows:
“While Congressman, Senator Yellen and I have made significant progress towards reaching an agreement on legislation, unfortunately we are not there yet.

So we can have a regulatory framework that allows responsible innovation while protecting consumers.”
