Weekly Crypto Regulation News Roundup: Trump’s Crypto Links Spark Ethics Concerns, Stablecoin Framework in Limbo
Digital assets collided with political ethics and regulatory hurdles this week. President Donald Trump’s cryptocurrency affiliations raised ethical questions, while a stablecoin bill failed by a single vote. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) announced a major regulatory roundtable, signaling heightened institutional engagement with crypto markets.
The SEC will host a landmark tokenization roundtable in Washington, D.C., on May 12. Wall Street giants and crypto firms will convene to discuss regulatory frameworks for bridging traditional and decentralized finance. This event marks a critical step toward institutional adoption of blockchain-based asset representation.
