#ProjectCrypto A major regulatory shift in the landscape of digital currencies in the United States.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has officially launched the "Crypto" project, a bold modernization initiative aimed at reshaping how digital assets are regulated. Led by its chairman, Paul Atkins, the agency is abandoning its hardline stance on enforcement and adopting a framework that encourages innovation, protects self-custody rights, and provides regulatory clarity for both startups and institutions.

Key proposals include:

- A unified licensing model for digital asset brokerage firms

- A clear distinction between commodities and securities

- Grace periods for early-stage digital currency projects and decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs)

- Legal protection for self-custody of assets

Atkins stated, "Many of the agency's old rules make no sense in the 21st century - let alone in the digital currency markets on supply chains."

At the same time, sentiment toward platform X (formerly known as Twitter) is already responding. Grok, the AI-powered digital assistant (xAI), analyzed user sentiments and found that tokens such as Cardano (ADA), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), Avalanche (AVAX), and Bittensor (TAO) are among the most recommended to buy during this regulatory shift.

With regulatory risks declining, investor focus is shifting towards long-term fundamentals.
