PANews reported on October 29 that according to Cryptonews, Ripple co-founder Chris Larsen said he believed Harris could play a key role in correcting the major mistakes made by the Biden administration in cryptocurrency policy. In an interview with CNBC released on Tuesday, Larsen expressed strong views on the current state of cryptocurrency regulation in the United States, describing it as a "misleading battle on cryptocurrency."
Larsen said: "We are very much in agreement with Harris' economic philosophy, and the message now is to encourage innovation and ensure that our American champions dominate industries around the world." In addition, Larsen also severely criticized Gary Gensler, chairman of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), calling him "the worst public official in this country." He also pointed out the missed opportunities for the United States to lead in blockchain technology.
