🇺🇸 US shifts its stance on DeFi
After years of pressure, the government is finally pivoting. The new SEC chair has dropped the Coinbase case, denounced the agency’s past approach, and is pushing to officially recognize DeFi as part of the financial system.
What’s happening:
🔥The Tornado Cash trial is still set for next month
🔥 But the SEC now says: past actions were a mistake
🔥 Staking is no longer seen as a violation of securities law
🔥Temporary rules are being drafted so projects can launch before full regulation
🔥 Custody and DeFi are now framed as core American values
🔥 The latest SEC event was literally titled “DeFi and the American Spirit”
Why it matters:
Stablecoins are now viewed as tools to strengthen the dollar. Crypto companies are going public. Politicians from both sides are starting to support the industry — not out of love, but pragmatism.
This isn’t hype. It’s a shift.
And it opens the door for real projects with real users and sustainable models.
