SEC and CFTC Chairmen to Jointly Address Crypto Regulatory Harmonization
SEC Chairman Paul Atkins and CFTC Chairman Michael Selig will convene on January 27 to advance regulatory clarity for digital assets. The joint event, hosted at CFTC headquarters, signals a concerted effort to position the U.S. as the global leader in cryptocurrency innovation.
"Legacy jurisdictional silos have created unnecessary friction," the regulators stated. Their collaboration builds upon September's resolution of inter-agency conflicts, with both commissions now aligning to foster compliant market growth.
The initiative responds to industry demands for coherent frameworks. By synchronizing oversight approaches, the agencies aim to eliminate regulatory arbitrage while maintaining robust investor protections.
