Four business days before he resigns on Inauguration Day, SEC Chair Gary Gensler reflects on his tenure at the agency, his relationship with the crypto community, and his legacy for investors across asset classes. In his exit interview before the SEC transitions to new leadership in a new administration, Gensler discusses legitimacy for various tokens on the blockchain, as well as the future of financial regulation. Plus, China is reportedly considering selling US TikTok to Elon Musk, and European regulators are eyeing big tech (again), and Starbucks is closing an open-door policy.
