He claims that the US payment system can be modernized with the help of encryption:

“Imagine if capital and human capital were ‘pouring into the valley’ almost instantly if such an effort were announced.”

Clayton also came up with the idea of ​​tokenizing the US treasury market to make it more efficient.

He pointed out that the majority of stablecoins in circulation are pegged to the US dollar, but that this could change quickly in the ongoing race for reserve currencies.

The former SEC chairman predicts that China will expand its influence in global credit and financial settlement markets using cryptographic and digital methods, which Clayton said could disrupt global financial markets.

Although Clayton was criticized during his tenure for failing to approve a Bitcoin Exchange Traded Fund (ETF), the former Wall Street top manager’s crypto-friendly stance won’t surprise anyone after his career this year.
