Meta is reportedly planning to sell the project and diem assets

The stablecoin Meta diem project seems to be getting lost because, according to Bloomberg, the company is trying to sell its assets. Close sources said that plans for stablecoin had failed, in part due to concerns raised by regulators over the project.

The sale of assets would go to a return of capital to investors, the report said. Diem reportedly negotiates with investment bankers on how to sell both intellectual property, and also how to find positions for project engineers.

Stablecoin has a controversial history, has undergone strict regulatory scrutiny and rebranded the original name Libra. The latest of these inquiries resulted in a request by Democratic senators in the United States for the company to end the Novi project and wallet.

CBDC, Regulation

An official from the Russian Ministry of Finance calls for the regulation of cryptocurrencies, not for ban

According to the surprising comments of the director of the Russian Ministry of Finance, Russia could ease its position on cryptocurrencies. Ivan Chebeskov, one of the directors of the Ministry of Finance, spoke in favor of regulating cryptocurrencies instead of banning them.

According to Chebeskov, the ban on operations with cryptocurrencies and their mining will lead to the country lagging behind the world’s technological industry. Instead, the minister suggested that cryptocurrencies be regulated:

“We need to give these technologies a chance to develop. In this regard, the Ministry of Finance is actively involved in the preparation of legislative initiatives regarding the regulation of this market. “

The comment was made during the RBC cryptoconference, which took place on Tuesday. Chebeskov said that the Russian ministry had prepared a proposal for the regulation of digital assets and was waiting for the government’s position on the matter.

The US Congressman calls for a “broad, bipartite consensus” on important digital asset policy issues

In a letter addressed to the leadership of the US House of Commons Financial Services Committee, its rank-and-file member Patrick McHenry dug into the “inconsistencies and jurisdictional uncertainties” inherent in US cryptocurrency regulation and called on the committee to address its critical issues.

McHenry, a Republican representing North Carolina, said at the outset that Democratic chairwoman Maxine Waters wanted to schedule another hearing on issues relevant to the digital asset industry. He further emphasized the need to identify and prioritize key issues and to reach a “broad, bipartite consensus” on issues that are a huge promise for the financial system and the wider economy.

Referring to the confusion the industry faces due to the competitive demands of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on digital asset jurisdiction, McHenry noted that neither of their positions is based on law. He argued that Congress should not pass regulation of digital assets to regulatory agencies or courts, but rather intervene to categorize this new asset class and set rules to follow.
