” Words and words and words… Just words [dans la Macronie] “. In a Twitter thread posted yesterday, the blockchain association Adan denounced the lies of the Macron government in its so-called desire to ” support the development of the crypto-asset industry “. However, in discussing the subject, Emmanuel Macron and Bruno Le Maire did not lack sweet words. A way to permanently seduce the crypto community in France ?
Emmanuel Macron and the huge imbroglio around cryptocurrencies
In the middle of the campaign during the second round of the presidential election, Emmanuel Macron expressly exhibited his crypto-friendly side. An attitude that he recently confirmed, or reiterated, notably by including the CEO of Sorare in the French delegation traveling to the United States. Besides, hadn’t he received Nicolas Julia shortly after at the Élysée?
However, the Adan sees in these speeches only a masquerade. Between theambition of Bruno Le Maire to make France the european hub of the cryptoasset ecosystem », that of Emmanuel Macron of ” make France the base camp in Europe for crypto », and the current achievements, which reflect the « France’s renunciation of its digital sovereignty “, there is far too much difference.
” France has indulged in a three-act play in the last few days “, specifies an Adan very straddling the evolution of cryptocurrencies in France.
Here are the 3 acts highlighted by this blockhain association:
- Act No. 1 – “ fiscal vagueness “: given that the government has deemed unfavorable two parliamentary amendments requiring a ” assessment report on the tax regime for cryptoassets » ;
- Act No. 2 – “ the false good idea » concerning the invention of a « precursor legislative mechanism in the world »: while it was inspired by the MiCA regulations;
- and Act No. 3 – “ the hole in the supervisor’s racket which would be linked to the lack of staff at the level of the regulatory entity of cryptocurrencies in France.
Hot reactions from French enthusiasts
In addition to the virulent criticism of Adan, some players in the French cryptosphere have pulled the government by the ears. Starting with influencer and speaker Owen Simonin, aka Hasheur. The latter has effectively emphasized this gap between the words given and the achievements.
Meanwhile, avowed crypto fan Bitcoinary clarified the inanity of regulators. ” Above all, stop saying that they want to protect us “, he underlined.
Others had also given themselves the freedom to judge Emmanuel Macron in person. The latter would not have carte blanche to decide what actions to take regarding cryptocurrencies, they believe.
The crypto community of France believes that the Swiss and the British have already taken the plunge. And if France intends to acquire the status of “crypto hub”, it will have to press the mushroom and not gloss.
