📢Breaking News: SEC Chairman Gary Gensler Announces Resignation in January!
Current Chairman of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Gary Gensler announced on Thursday that he will officially resign in January.
He confirmed this news in a statement on social media X and in an article on the SEC's official website, stating that ensuring the global leadership of U.S. capital markets has been the honor of his life. Gensler expressed gratitude to President Biden and emphasized that the SEC has never shied away from enforcing the law.
It is worth noting that in the cryptocurrency sector, Gary Gensler's reputation is not good, mainly due to his initiation of multiple enforcement actions against industry leaders and his overly cautious approach in pushing for regulatory rules concerning emerging asset classes such as cryptocurrencies. However, with Donald Trump's victory, the market generally expects that the new government may bring a more lenient regulatory environment for cryptocurrencies.
Following the announcement of Gensler's resignation, the price of Bitcoin surged, successfully breaking through the $9,800 mark.
This price movement may reflect the market's positive expectations for cryptocurrency policies under the new government leadership, as well as investors' responses to the possibility of a friendlier regulatory stance from the new government.
In summary, the rise in Bitcoin could indicate investors' expectations for the new SEC leadership and hopes for a potential easing of the cryptocurrency regulatory environment. With Gensler's departure, we may see the arrival of a more open and friendly regulatory era for cryptocurrencies.
