#SECCryptoRoundtable

On March 21, 2025, the Cryptocurrency Task Force of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) held its first public roundtable meeting, marking an important turning point in the SEC's approach to the cryptocurrency industry. Instead of focusing on litigation as in the past, the agency is aiming to establish a clear and comprehensive legal framework.

The discussion included industry experts, along with SEC commissioners, to clarify how securities laws could be applied to digital assets. Commissioner Hester Peirce expressed the SEC's commitment to seeking a viable legal solution, while Acting Chair Mark Uyeda emphasized the need to clarify the legal status of cryptocurrency.

This move reflects a significant change under the new administration, opening up hopes for a more transparent and stable legal environment for the cryptocurrency market.
