SEC Shifts Gears: Paul Atkins Signals New U.S. Crypto Regulation Ahead
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Chair Paul Atkins has announced the agency's mobilization to position the U.S. as a global hub for digital assets. This aligns with President Donald Trump's agenda for the sector, following the recent release of the President’s Working Group report on digital assets.
The SEC is now coordinating across divisions to integrate crypto assets into its regulatory framework, aiming to provide market clarity. The proposed guidelines suggest a shared oversight model between the SEC and the CFTC, with the latter handling commodity-based tokens.
