#美SEC加密圆桌会议 #美SEC加密圆桌会议 Below is information regarding the SEC's cryptocurrency roundtable meeting:

Meeting Background

• Establishment of a Special Working Group: On March 4, 2025, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) announced that its newly formed cryptocurrency special working group will hold its first roundtable meeting. The group is led by Republican Commissioner Hester Peirce and aims to develop a clearer regulatory framework through in-depth dialogue with the industry.

• Policy Shift: This meeting marks a new phase in U.S. cryptocurrency regulatory policy, shifting from 'enforcement-led' to 'co-creation of rules.' Since the Trump administration took office, the SEC has withdrawn multiple lawsuits against entities such as Kraken and Yuga Labs, and has made it clear that meme tokens are not considered securities, signaling a relaxation of regulatory pressure.

• Other Topics: Including market structure, investor protection, token classification, and compliance pathways.

Meeting Significance

• Promoting Policy Transparency: This roundtable meeting is a new step by the SEC in cryptocurrency regulation, aiming to promote policy transparency and gather industry opinions.

• Industry Turning Point: The market widely believes that the SEC's shift could end the old model of 'regulation equals enforcement,' and clear rules will attract institutional investors, helping the U.S. regain its dominance in the global cryptocurrency competition.
