#CryptoRegulation New Chair of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Paul Atkins, appointed in April 2025, announced plans to develop a rational regulatory framework for the cryptocurrency market. At a meeting with industry representatives on May 12, 2025, dedicated to the tokenization of assets, Atkins emphasized that creating clear and transparent rules is his 'absolute priority.' He noted that outdated regulatory approaches hinder the industry's development and promised to change the SEC's course, which had previously faced criticism from the crypto community.
Atkins, known for his support of digital assets, plans to engage key market players in dialogue to create favorable conditions for innovation. His initiatives have already received positive feedback: investors hope that new rules will contribute to the growth of the cryptocurrency market in the U.S. The change in SEC policy could become a turning point for an industry seeking clarity in regulation.
