The roundtable has been scheduled for Oct. 18 and will be the sixth roundtable in a series of discussions that began in August, touching upon issues such as market structure, investor protection, and regulatory oversight of digital assets held in Washington.<\/p>\n
Peirce has previously said that these meetings are meant to tap into the insights of industry participants and the broader public, making them a key part of how the SEC shapes rules that can realistically work for the crypto sector.<\/p>\n
The SEC\u2019s new approach to crypto regulations<\/h1>\n
Under a pro-crypto administration that is being led by returning President Donald Trump, the commission has taken a softer stance towards cryptocurrencies and related technologies and has moved to ease previously stringent enforcement measures and compliance burdens on U.S.-based crypto firms.<\/p>\n
Earlier this month, SEC Chair Paul Atkins unveiled the Commission\u2019s Spring 2025 regulatory agenda, which would task the Commission to target key areas such as issuance, custody, and exchange trading rules and provide clarity on them.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Recently, the SEC, alongside the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), said that both agencies have begun working to \u201cprovide markets the clarity they deserve,\u201d while adding that they want to consider \u201cinnovation exemptions\u201d for the decentralized finance space.<\/p>\n
The agencies believe such exemptions could eventually permit peer-to-peer trading and other complex market operations under defined guardrails. Both agencies will host a joint roundtable on Sep. 29 to discuss the proposals.<\/p>\n
Separately, the SEC, the following day, announced the launch of a new cross-border task force to combat transnational fraud. The task force will investigate offshore companies suspected of violating U.S. securities laws, with an emphasis on market manipulation schemes such as pump-and-dump.<\/p>\n
