California Governor Gavin Newsom's Impactful Actions on Legislation in 2025
Originally Published 2 years ago — by Cryptopolitan
California Governor Gavin Newsom has signed the Digital Financial Assets Law, establishing a regulatory framework for the crypto industry under the Department of Financial Protection and Innovation (DFPI). The law requires businesses to obtain a DFPI license and comply with auditing and record-keeping requirements. This move addresses the need for regulatory clarity in the crypto sector and sets a precedent for other states. However, the absence of a comprehensive U.S. regulatory framework remains a concern, and California's law is seen as a step in the right direction.
