According to news from CoinWorld on August 23, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) cryptocurrency special task force is conducting a nationwide tour, hosting a series of roundtable meetings. The cryptocurrency special task force aims to hear from groups that previously could not attend the roundtable meetings in Washington, as well as voices that may have historically been underrepresented in other policy-making processes. The task force is well aware that any regulatory framework will have far-reaching impacts, and thus hopes to ensure that communication and dialogue are as comprehensive as possible. The itinerary for the cryptocurrency task force is as follows: August 4: Berkeley, California; August 19: Boston; September 4: Dallas; September 15: Chicago; September 25: New York City; October 2: Los Angeles; October 24: Cleveland; October 29: Scottsdale, Arizona; November 12: New York City; December 5: Ann Arbor, Michigan.
