Crypto Industry Waves Goodbye to Top Fed Regulator as Resignations Pile Up

Quick Summary:

Michael Barr stepped down from his post on Monday and follows closely on the heels of SEC Chairman Gary Gensler's announcement late last year.

Major crypto exchanges rely on banks to facilitate money transfers that enable customers to buy and sell digital assets on their platforms.

Barr's departure comes a few weeks after so-called anti-crypto SEC Chairman Gary Gensler and Commissioner Jaime Lizárraga signaled last November they would resign from their posts when pro-crypto President-elect Donald Trump takes office later this month.
