Miller Whitehouse-Levine, previously CEO of the DeFi Education Fund (DEF), has announced the launch of the Solana Policy Institute, a new non-profit focused on shaping sensible cryptocurrency regulations in the United States. As reported by The Block, the institute aims to collaborate with key regulatory bodies, including the SEC's cryptocurrency task force and the leadership of the CFTC. The Solana Policy Institute will advocate for clear and pragmatic rules for the digital asset space. With increasing scrutiny and enforcement actions from regulators, industry stakeholders are actively seeking ways to engage in constructive dialogue and provide expertise to policymakers. This initiative comes at a crucial time for the crypto industry, as the need for regulatory clarity grows. By engaging directly with the SEC and CFTC, the Solana Policy Institute hopes to foster a more informed and balanced regulatory landscape. ```
