The a16z Show · Marc Andreessen and Chris Dixon: What’s at Stake in Crypto Regulation · 1 Aug 2026 podcast

It's, you know, the result, importantly, legislation is the result of a lot of smart people getting together

people from different political parties compromising, you know, finding the right balance between industry and consumer protection and so forth.

And, you know, so we think ultimately that's what is required and why the Clarity Act is so important.

Yeah.

So, well, right now, there is no federal regulator for crypto exchanges, as an example.

So, you know, New York Stock Exchange, NASDAQ, they have federal regulators.

Right now, there is no – the Coinbases, Krakens, FTX, you know, for every good company like Coinbase, there are many offshore ones that are not good.

There is simply no regulator.

There is no – and this is one of the very important things.

It's a big chunk of the Clarity Act is to provide that so that the SEC and the CFTC have –

oversight, they put in disclosure regimes, anti-fraud regimes, insider trading rules, all the things that we are used to, as Mark was saying, with other financial markets.

It's just the same kinds of rules with the same agencies overseeing them.

For example, FTX wasn't audited properly.

Very simple.

This is what ultimately happened.

They were apparently moving money between different entities.

They didn't have all the money there.

You know, if you're a federally registered crypto exchange, at an absolute minimum, you're being audited.

You have all sorts of controls.

They have surveillance regimes.
