Chainlink LINK Veteran Takes Helm at SEC Crypto Task Force
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has appointed Taylor Lindman, a former executive at chainlink Labs, as the new Chief Counsel of its Crypto Task Force. Lindman, who served as Deputy General Counsel at Chainlink for five years, replaces Michael Selig, who is now Chairman of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).
Established under acting chairman Mark Uyeda following Gary Gensler's departure, the SEC's Crypto Task Force aims to refine the agency's approach to digital assets and develop a comprehensive regulatory framework. Lindman's appointment signals a continued focus on compliance and risk management as the U.S. financial system evolves.
Chainlink's social media announcement emphasized collaboration in modernizing financial infrastructure, stating the company looks forward to advancing systemic development alongside regulatory progress.
