\n

The turmoil surrounding crypto exchange\u00a0FTX and Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) reaffirmed regulators\u2019 belief about the need for stricter oversight across the crypto ecosystem. Seeking investor protection against a similar fallout, New York Attorney General (NYAG) Letitia James recommended prohibiting crypto investments in defined contribution plans and individual retirement accounts (IRAs).<\/p>\n

In a letter addressed to the members of the U.S. Congress, James requested legislation that would bar U.S. citizens from purchasing cryptocurrencies and digital assets using their funds in IRAs and defined contribution plans such as 401(k) and 457 plans. However, a survey from October 2022 showed that nearly 50% of U.S.-based investors want to see crypto become a part of their 401(k) retirement plans.<\/p>\n

James further pitched the rejection of two acts \u2014 the recently proposed Retirement Savings Modernization Act and the Financial Freedom Act of 2022 \u2014 that are aimed at allowing investments in digital assets. While highlighting SBF\u2019s involvement in running a Ponzi Scheme and misappropriating users\u2019 funds, James jotted down four primary reasons explaining her call to exclude digital assets from IRAs and defined contribution plans, as explained below. <\/p>\n

First and foremost, the NYAG pointed out the importance of protecting retirement savings in the long term. Secondly, she highlighted Congress’ historical obligation to protect the retirement funds of U.S. citizens. James used narratives including frauds and lack of sufficient guardrails as her third reason to prohibit crypto investments. The final concern was around the volatility and custodial and valuation uncertainties.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, the NYAG clarified that there is a distinction between digital assets and blockchain technology. She does believe that U.S. citizens should be allowed to purchase stakes in publicly traded blockchain-based businesses in retirement accounts. <\/p>\n

An immediate measure in this regard would be adding subparagraphs to existing laws \u2014 26 U.S. Code \u00a7 408: Individual retirement accounts and 29 U.S. Code \u00a7 1104: Fiduciary duties \u2014 for prohibiting digital assets investments.<\/p>\n
