The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is ready to reset its relationship with the crypto industry, according to Commissioner Hester Peirce.
The SEC’s new “Crypto Task Force” held its inaugural roundtable event on Friday, which brought together regulators, private-sector lawyers and digital asset firm executives.
At the event, Peirce, a longtime crypto advocate, spoke of “a restart of the Commission’s approach to crypto regulation.”
“The formation of the Crypto Task Force gave permission to staff in the building to work earnestly towards a workable framework for crypto regulation, and staff have responded with palpable enthusiasm. The enthusiasm in this room is also palpable, so let us seize the moment and have a meaningful conversation today.
This room is full of people—on the panel, on the Crypto Task Force, on the Commission staff, and in the audience—who are ready for [the] sprint ahead. People have been talking, thinking, and writing about the issues with which we are now wrestling. The roundtable series will allow us to explore the issues collaboratively.”
Peirce leads the Crypto Task Force, which launched in January. The commissioner said last month that the team is currently working on questions related to the security status, public offerings, custody and secondary market trading of crypto assets.
