Tokenization Outpaces Washington as Regulatory Clarity Becomes Economic Issue

Former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo has argued that regulatory clarity around tokenization is not merely a legal or political matter, but fundamentally an economic one. The digital asset sector is advancing at a pace that U.S. regulatory frameworks have struggled to match. Cuomo's remarks highlight growing concern that Washington's slow response to tokenization could have broader economic consequences. The gap between technological progress and policy development is increasingly seen as a competitive risk for the United States.
