Вивек Рамасвами, американский предприниматель и кандидат в президенты на выборах в США в 2024 году, раскритиковал обращение администрации Джо Байдена с криптомиксерами. Кандидат от республиканской партии является активным сторонником биткойнов и других цифровых активов и представил структуру криптополитики 16 ноября на Североамериканском саммите по блокчейну (NABS) в Форт-Уэрте, штат Техас.

Новая политика, титулованный “The Three Freedoms of Crypto,” states that the developers of the smart contract code should not be punished for the crimes committed by those who use the smart contract code. Vivek Ramaswamy added that cryptocurrency mixers are protected by the US Constitution’s First Amendment.

“I believe that code is a form of speech and is protected by the First Amendment. So, when you take an example, like the case brought against the Tornado Cash folks, for example, put aside the specifics of whether what was done is right or wrong. You can’t go after the developers of code. What you actually need to implement is going after individual bad actors that are breaking the laws that already exist on the books,” he said.

Vivek Ramaswamy promised to “direct government prosecutors to prosecute bad actors, not the code they use and not the developers who write that code,” while adding that if he becomes the president of the US, he will provide regulatory clarity by giving new digital assets “safe harbor” exemptions from the securities laws for a period of time after their debut and to prevent any federal agency from creating rules that limit the use of self-hosted wallets.

The Republican also criticized the recent sanctions against crypto mixer Tornado Cash noting, “the case brought against the Tornado Cash folks, for example. […] You can’t go after the developers of code.” It is crucial to note that US prosecutors арестовали соучредителей Tornado Cash, Роман Шторм и Роман Семенов в августе. Им было предъявлено обвинение в нарушении санкций и отмывании сотен миллионов долларов для Lazarus Group, северокорейской хакерской группы.

Как ранее сообщал Bitnation, Илон Маск, основатель и генеральный директор Tesla и SpaceX, похвалил Вивека Рамасвами, добавив: “He is a very promising candidate.”
