Despite representing less than 1% of U.S. financial markets, Gensler highlighted the high percentage of crypto-related scams. He expressed his skepticism towards the industry, stating, "I've never seen a field that is so wrapped up in sentiment and not so much about fundamentals."
儘管占美國金融市場的份額不到 1%,Gensler 強調了與加密貨幣相關的詐騙所佔的高比例。他表達了對該行業的懷疑,並表示:“我從未見過一個行業如此專注於情緒,而不是基本面。”
Gensler's comments emerge as he prepares to step down on January 20, coinciding with President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration.
詹斯勒發表此番言論之際,他正準備在 1 月 20 日辭職,恰逢當選總統唐納德·川普就職典禮。

Gensler maintains that most cryptocurrencies meet the criteria of securities, encouraging firms to register with the SEC. Opponents within the industry argue that compliance is impractical given regulatory frameworks designed for traditional financial entities.
Gensler 認為大多數加密貨幣都符合證券標準,並鼓勵公司向 SEC 註冊。業界的反對者認為,鑑於針對傳統金融實體設計的監管框架,合規性是不切實際的。

在回顧其任期時,Gensler 認識到所面臨的挑戰,同時強調 SEC 對現有努力的貢獻。 「我對我們所取得的成就感到自豪,但仍有工作要做,」他說。
