Uyeda stated, 'Many crypto assets are not securities, but they are labeled as such.' He highlighted the importance of collaboration between Congress, the White House, and regulators to create a comprehensive framework for the industry. Uyeda pointed out that the next chairman needs to address regulatory challenges across multiple administrative agencies.

According to previous reports, a lawyer stated that SEC Commissioner Mark Uyeda is likely to become the next chairman of the agency.
