At the SEC roundtable on cryptocurrency, key regulatory directions were discussed. In particular, the need for the registration of cryptocurrency exchanges that also act as brokers, custodians, and clearinghouses was emphasized. Attention was also given to the storage of digital assets, especially in the context of protecting investors in case of company bankruptcies. The new SEC chair announced plans to create clear rules for the issuance, storage, and trading of crypto assets to replace the current punishment-based approach. The goal is to ensure innovation while providing proper investor protection and enhancing market transparency.
