  • Chainlink co-founder favors Singapore and Hong Kong's open approach to cryptocurrency market regulation.
  • Crypto's benefits to society through stablecoins outweigh regulatory concerns, says Chainlink's Nazarov.

Chainlink LINK/USD co-founder Sergey Nazarov on Friday said “the party’s back on” for cryptocurrency markets, predicting substantial industry growth amid potential changes in the U.S. regulatory landscape under Donald Trump‘s presidency.

What Happened: “This is just the beginning basically. This is like the party’s back on and there’s going to be huge huge growth in all categories of crypto,” Nazarov told CNBC, expressing optimism about the industry’s trajectory.

Nazarov emphasized that cryptocurrency’s fundamental benefits to society outweigh regulatory concerns.

“I think that crypto fundamentally benefits society and makes things work in a much more reliable way than they do now,” he stated, citing stablecoins and tokenized funds as examples of successful implementation.

Drawing parallels with Asian crypto hubs, Nazarov pointed to successful regulatory frameworks in Singapore and Hong Kong.

“More regulation doesn’t mean better markets, it just means kind of muted markets with less innovation,” he explained, advocating for a more permissive approach to cryptocurrency regulation.
