According to Hsu, large institutional investment firms like JPMorgan Chase entered the ecosystem a few years ago and began gobbling up the lion’s share of the wealth. Smaller firms like Hsu’s struggled to compete. She couldn’t charge sustainable rates that were comparable to those paid by the big companies. Even more challenging, her customers struggled to effectively navigate complex regulatory systems concocted by state regimes and uncertain federal regulatory agencies.

the current rules help sustain a non-level playing field where entrenched wealth and power is recirculated among those who already have it. According to Parker, every state in the U.S. has a different set of rules for businesses identified as money transmitters, a subcategory of money service businesses that cryptocurrency exchanges are categorized as. Parker says, “When you’re dealing with spot market transactions, it’s a state-by-state analysis of money transmitter licenses. [..] It’s not even one regime. It’s 50 different interpretations of what it means to be a money generator.
