🚨 Is the "battle" between the SEC and cryptocurrency about to usher in a big reversal?
SEC Commissioner Mark Uyeda recently made a heavy point in an interview that he hopes the SEC can adjust its regulatory strategy for cryptocurrencies.
This call echoes the views of incoming President Trump, and also indicates that the SEC's attitude towards cryptocurrencies may be about to usher in a big change!
As a member of the Republican Party, Commissioner Uyeda's position is consistent with President Trump's opposition to the Biden administration's radical measures against the cryptocurrency industry.
In an interview with Fox Business, Commissioner Uyeda made it clear: "The Commission's war on cryptocurrencies must end, especially those cases where there are no allegations of fraud or harm simply because they are not registered."
In the past three years, the SEC has launched more than one hundred enforcement actions against cryptocurrency companies, involving violations ranging from major fraud and money laundering to minor violations, such as failure to comply with registration requirements. SEC Chairman Gary Gensler also believes that most crypto tokens, except Bitcoin and Ethereum, are securities under the jurisdiction of the SEC.
It is widely believed that if Gensler leaves before President Trump takes office, the new SEC chairman may review all non-fraudulent cryptocurrency cases. This may involve resolving cases that have already been adjudicated and dismissing those that are still in the process of litigation.
So who will be the next SEC chairman? There is speculation that Ujeda may be under consideration. His competitors include Dan Gallagher, chief legal and compliance officer of Robinhood, and Paul Atkins, CEO of Patomak Global.
As we all know, the current SEC Chairman Gensler is controversial in the industry for his strict regulatory stance on cryptocurrencies. Ripple's CEO even described his tenure as a "reign of terror." At the same time, legal experts and members of Congress are also urging financial regulators to develop clearer and more coherent regulatory policies.
In addition, there is no lack of disagreements within the SEC on the regulation of cryptocurrencies. Commissioners Ujeda and Hester Peirce advocate a more transparent and balanced regulatory strategy.
I believe that with the emergence of these voices, the cryptocurrency industry may be about to usher in a new era. Let us wait and see!
