#CryptoRoundTableRemarks The head of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Paul Atkins, announced a new approach by the agency to non-custodial storage of cryptocurrencies. He referred to this right as a "fundamental American value."

The statement was made on June 6 during the final roundtable of the cryptocurrency task force titled "DeFi and the American Spirit." It marks a departure from the policies of the previous administration.
