#CryptoRoundTableRemarks

In April 2025, the third meeting of the SEC Crypto Roundtable took place, which became a key event in the regulatory landscape of the United States regarding cryptocurrencies. The newly appointed SEC Chairman Paul Atkins presented his "principled approach" to digital assets, emphasizing the need for clear and predictable rules. He highlighted the importance of creating regulations for the safe storage of crypto assets that would comply with existing securities laws.

The event was attended by representatives of major industry players, including Kraken, Fireblocks, and legal analysts. Practical aspects of implementing a regulatory framework that takes into account the specifics of digital assets and DeFi were discussed.

The meeting was part of a series of five roundtables aimed at creating a balanced policy regarding cryptocurrencies, tokenization, and institutional use of digital finance. This step by the SEC indicates a gradual shift from punitive regulation to constructive dialogue with the industry. Overall, a gradual liberalization of the regulatory environment and support for innovation in the financial sector of the United States is expected.
