U.S. Deputy Attorney General: Will prioritize combating illegal activities using Crypto Assets.

Golden Finance reported that Lisa Monaco, the Deputy Attorney General of the United States, recently emphasized that priority will be given to combating illegal activities that utilize Crypto Assets, particularly the use of privacy protection tools. In contrast, New York Attorney General Letitia James advocates for stricter Crypto Assets regulation. Monaco believes that the existing legal tools of the Department of Justice are sufficient to address the related issues without the need for additional legislation. This position contrasts with the approach of some state officials pushing for stricter regulations, highlighting the divergence between federal and state regulations on Crypto Assets.
