SEC Chair Paul Atkins has indicated that the majority of cryptocurrency tokens should not be classified as securities, stating that a token alone is "probably not" a security. The remarks come as the SEC launches "Project Crypto," an initiative aimed at modernizing securities laws and transitioning U.S. markets onto blockchain technology.

Atkins stressed the importance of establishing a clear regulatory framework to foster innovation in the crypto sector while shielding it from overreach. The move signals a potential shift toward more accommodating policies for digital assets, with implications for market structure and investor protections.
