David Weild IV is calling for a Jobs Act 2.0 with blockchain at its core.

While that might not seem surprising coming from any other investor - since the act (formally called Jumpstart Our Business Startups) has yet to generate the growth in initial public offerings (IPOs) it was supposed to - this stance from this particular investor is notable since Weild himself is often called the "Father of the Jobs Act" for his research into the destructive nature of the equity markets on businesses.

"People call me the Father of the Jobs Act, but it's not the act that I would have written if they'd given me the pen," said Weild, who is now head of investment banking firm Weild and Co. Holdings. "That's probably my biggest frustration with a process which is really based on compromise and collaboration."
