A cryptocurrency expert is sounding the alarm on how the Canadian government is freezing the crypto wallet's of Freedom Convoy protesters and said that it's something that can “very realistically” happen in the United States.
Bitwise Asset Management general counsel Katherine Dowling reacts to Coinbase’s Super Bowl ad and discusses cryptocurrency regulation.
Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland said during a press conference on Thursday that crypto wallets have been frozen. Nicholas Anthony, manager of the Cato Institute's Center for Monetary and Financial Alternatives, told FOX Business that the same strategy the Canadian government is using to silence protesters can "very realistically happen here."
"This shouldn't be something that can just happen on a whim, and seeing it just north of the border is clear evidence," Anthony said. Anthony said that "no one is safe" from the type of actions the Canadian government is taking against protesters' personal bank accounts and crypto wallets.
