For Checkout This situation did not go unnoticed, as he pointed out in the press release:

…we strongly feel that regulation should be an integral part of any resulting framework, given its unique ability to protect the ecosystem from systemic abuse. In the absence of such regulation, we fundamentally believe that technological advances alone would not be able to provide the secure and stable payment infrastructure needed to drive mass adoption, thus impeding its progress. We greatly appreciate the opportunity to defend these views by joining the Libra.
