At instances, it looks as if Gary Gensler enjoys taking part in a cartoon villain model of himself, taunting crypto and taking the trade’s backlash in return.

He is again at it in the present day, wishing a “comfortable fifteenth anniversary to Satoshi’s well-known white paper that began crypto.”

The SEC chair added Halloween spice to his feedback on X, asking, “if Satoshi Nakamoto went as Satoshi Nakamoto for Halloween, would we be capable of inform?”

Crypto Twitter took the bait. One of many many replies got here from X consumer by the identify of @crypto_rand and stated, “if you happen to went as Mr Burns, would we be capable of inform?”

The continued backwards and forwards between Gensler and the crypto group appears virtually playful, besides the Chair’s antagonism has very actual penalties to companies and customers.

He ends the put up recommending crypto corporations which can be “tricking” buyers, to begin “treating” them to “compliance with the securities legal guidelines.”

Hilarious.
