BitGo CEO says stalled U.S. Clarity bill is raising crypto systemic risk

BitGo CEO Mike Belshe said the lack of progress on the U.S. Clarity bill is leaving the crypto market exposed to ongoing systemic risk. Belshe said the main issue is a structure in which a single firm simultaneously operates a trading platform, brokerage and asset custody service. While the collapse of a brokerage alone could limit damage to part of the market, the failure of a firm running an exchange and custody services as well could spread the shock across the broader market.
