SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce, leading the agency’s crypto Task Force since January 2025, provided crucial insights into the regulatory classification of non-fungible tokens during the SEC Speaks event. Most NFTs do not qualify as securities under federal law, she confirmed—including those designed to compensate creators over time.

The newly established task force reflects the SEC’s push for clearer cryptocurrency regulations. Peirce’s team is actively developing guidance for NFTs, stablecoins, and other digital assets, aiming to reduce ambiguity in this rapidly evolving sector.
