#SECCrypto2.0

In January 2025, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) initiated the "Crypto 2.0" initiative, forming a dedicated Crypto Task Force led by Commissioner Hester Peirce. This task force aims to develop a comprehensive and clear regulatory framework for crypto assets, moving away from the SEC's previous reliance on enforcement actions. The initiative seeks to provide clarity on the application of federal securities laws to the crypto market, fostering innovation while ensuring investor protection. Additionally, the SEC has proposed the establishment of a Presidential Task Force on Cryptocurrency to coordinate federal agency activities in this sector.
