#ProjectCrypto Project Crypto is a bold initiative by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) aimed at modernizing securities regulations to support blockchain innovation. Launched by SEC Chair Paul Atkins, the project seeks to establish clear guidelines for crypto asset classification, distribution, custody, and trading. Key priorities include ¹ ²:

- *Clear Guidelines*: Determining whether crypto assets are securities, and developing purpose-fit disclosures and safe harbors for token distributions

- *Modernized Custody*: Updating custody requirements to accommodate digital assets and enable self-custody

- *Super-Apps*: Allowing platforms to offer multiple crypto services under a single license

- *Innovation Exemption*: Enabling new products to launch under principles-based compliance rules. This initiative aims to make the US a global hub for crypto innovation and support President Trump's vision to make America the "crypto capital of the world"
