#CryptoRoundTableRemarks The hashtag #CryptoRoundtableRemarks has gained prominence following the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) inaugural Crypto Task Force roundtable on March 21, 2025. This event marked a significant shift from the SEC's previous enforcement-centric approach to a more collaborative dialogue with the crypto industry. Led by Commissioner Hester Peirce, the roundtable addressed critical issues, including the classification of digital assets under existing securities laws. Commissioner Caroline Crenshaw emphasized the importance of maintaining investor protections while adapting regulations to new technologies. Acting Chairman Mark Uyeda highlighted the challenges of applying the traditional Howey test to modern digital assets. This roundtable signifies the SEC's commitment to engaging with stakeholders to develop a clear and balanced regulatory

framework for cryptocurrencies.
