Coinbase IPO a ‘watershed moment’ for crypto regulation: Caitlin Long

Caitlin Long, founder of Wyoming-based digital asset bank, Avanti Bank & Trust, has predicted Coinbase’s upcoming IPO will be a “watershed moment” for cryptocurrency regulation.

Speaking alongside SEC commissioner Hester Peirce during BlockFi and Real Vision’s “ in the Real World” event on Feb. 5, Long speculated the IPO of the United States’ leading crypto exchange is likely to “force” the SEC’s hand to establish a precedent for many outstanding regulatory issues key to the digital asset sector.
