SEC Announces New Crypto Task Force 🚀
On January 20, 2025, Interim SEC Chairman Mark Uyeda announced the formation of a Crypto Task Force to create a regulatory framework for digital assets. The task force will be led by Hester Peirce (Crypto Mom), known for her pro-crypto stance.
Key Objectives:
Clear and transparent regulations ✅
Simplified registration processes 📝
Effective and accessible reporting systems 📊
Fair use of resources ⚖️
Richard Gabbert (Chief of Staff) and Taylor Asher (Chief Policy Adviser) will oversee operations. The task force will collaborate with the CFTC and other regulatory bodies while engaging with the industry through roundtable discussions to address challenges and improve the crypto ecosystem.
