At the Aspen Security Forum on Tuesday, US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chairman Gary Gensler talked about his role in teaching the fintech knowledge at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology: "in that work, I came to believe that though there was a lot of hype masquerading as reality in the crypto field, Nakamoto's innovation is real.”
He also mentioned: "I really do think there’s something real about the distributed ledger technology, moving value on the internet...
