Some of the cryptocurrency industry's most influential executives told CNBC about their 2022 expectations.

The crypto industry now sprawls well beyond bitcoin and executives expect new uses for the technology to pick up in 2022.

" are top of executives' minds heading into next year. Regulation remains as the biggest uncertainty.FTX CEO, Sam Bankman-Fried "There's enormous worry about stablecoins right now. But it's pretty straightforward to address. You have attestations, or you have an audit from a regulator." "Even in an environment where the Fed raises interest rates, investors and businesses will be hungry for the high-yield opportunities offered through digital assets. So expect to see institutional adoption of digital assets balloon — directly, through ETFs, or custom yield-generating products."

"The level of activity and innovation occurring in the space is too great to ignore, as is the risk to American competitiveness in technology and capital markets."Paxos is the company powering PayPal's crypto offering behind the scenes. CEO Charles Cascarilla also expects more action in the stablecoin market. His company offers its own dollar-pegged coin, USDP. The CEO is one of many warning that the U.S. has a lot to lose if it gets regulation wrong.
