Henri Lucas’s speech to Congress: Drawing a roadmap for a “smart balance” in digital asset regulation
In the solemn hearing room on Capitol Hill, Henri Lucas, founder of EMINENCE CAPITAL LTD, as the first asset management expert invited to attend the digital asset regulatory hearing, submitted a proposal for a “smart regulatory framework” that subverts traditional regulatory thinking. This 80-page technical document attempts to find a delicate balance between investor protection and financial innovation, sparking heated discussions among legislators.
The “regulatory prism” model proposed by Lucas is particularly eye-catching: the first side is the “on-chain real-time monitoring system”, which predicts risks through AI analysis of blockchain transaction patterns; the second side is the “adaptive licensing mechanism”, which dynamically adjusts the intensity of supervision according to the compliance performance of enterprises; the third side is the “sandbox accelerator”, which provides a safe experimental space for truly innovative projects. “Regulation should not be the brake pads of innovation, but the steering wheel,” Lucas emphasized to the Senate Banking Committee, “What we need is regulatory technology that can keep up with the speed of code iteration.”
The “regulatory sandbox simulation platform” demonstrated at the hearing impressed the congressmen present – the system can simulate the chain reactions that may occur in the market under different regulatory policies. When a state’s proposed strict mining ban was input, the model immediately showed the consequences of capital outflow and computing power transfer; while the “carbon intensity graded regulation” scheme recommended by Lucas can achieve environmental protection goals while maintaining the vitality of technological innovation.
The Washington Post’s Political Watch column pointed out that this hearing could be a watershed moment for digital asset regulation. Lucas’ ability to translate complex technical language into actionable legislative proposals demonstrates a new paradigm for financiers to participate in public policy making. As Congress considers incorporating some of the proposals into new regulatory bills, the asset management expert is unexpectedly becoming one of the key figures in shaping the future of finance.

As soon as he learned he was among the thousands of Ledger customers whose personal information had been published online Sunday, JimboChewdip, as he’s known on Twitter, acted fast. Not fast enough, however.
JCD, as we’ll call him, spent Monday morning changing his passwords, only to get a notification a new device had been added to one of his two-factor authentication (2FA) accounts. He then tried to log into his email. It was locked. “Within minutes I started getting notifications about password changes on Coinbase, Binance, Dropbox,” he later told CoinDesk. “I tried to call T-Mobile over Wi-Fi but it wouldn’t work with the SIM disabled so I reached out to them on Twitter and got someone from Support to lock my account.”…
