Sessions
The bitcoin network exists without the need for any regulatory system, however regulation may still have an important role in a hyper-bitcoinized world... After all, projects and businesses will still require capital and investors and savers will still need to know whether an investment or project is legitimate, safe or sound. So how will regulation look like in a decentralized world? Is regulation without a centralized, territorial regulator possible?
OpnState has designed a regulatory framework for digital asset services in a small but significant juridiction - doing this has allowed him to uncover the flaws and perils of centralized regulation. Modern centralized regulators have only existed for less than a century - during which time they have gradually accumulated an inordinate amount of power and become weaponized tools for political means and oppression.
This session will allow OpnState to (for the first time) unveil his new primer on a decentralized regulatory framework.
OpnState currently drafts legislation and policy for a significant financial services government. He has lead the development of his government's regulatory framework for digital assets and has drafted legislation for all aspects of financial services, including anti-money laundering and laws that govern companies which use bitcoin.
His insider perspective has allowed him to see how governments are being coerced by unelected global standard-setting bodies., how governments are slowly losing the ability to decide what is best for their population and how the very concept of "government" is gradually centralizing away from you, the citizen. Fed up by what he sees around him every day, he decided to blow the whistle on some alarming trends you should be made aware of.
OpnState will discuss what he sees, how governments are being coerced, and what you can do about it.
