Special Address Of CFTC Commissioner J. Christopher Giancarlo Before The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation 2016 Blockchain Symposium - Regulators And The Blockchain: First, Do No Harm
Date 29/03/2016
Introduction
Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for your warm welcome. It is a pleasure to be here with you today.
Before I begin, let me say that my remarks reflect my own views and do not necessarily constitute the views of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC or Commission), my fellow CFTC commissioners or the CFTC staff.
Two decades ago, as the Internet was entering a phase of rapid growth and expansion, a Republican Congress and the Clinton administration established a set of foundational principles: the Internet was to progress through human social interaction, voluntary contractual relations and free markets. Governments and regulators were not to harm the Internet’s continuing evolution. Because of this “do no harm” approach, the Internet created millions of jobs, transformed our economy forever and improved standards of living across the globe.
