The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has announced the composition of its new cryptocurrency task force. Key figures have been appointed to advise the agency on various crypto-related issues.
New Task Force Composition
Mike Selig, the protégé of former CFTC Chair Christopher Giancarlo, has been appointed as the chief counsel. Richard Gabbert, Senior Advisor to Acting Chairman Mark Uyeda, will take on the role of chief of staff.
Key Members of the Task Force
The task force will include ten senior advisors. Landon Zinda, former policy director of the nonprofit lobbying group Coin Center, is among them.
First Task Force Meeting
In January, the SEC unveiled its task force aimed at creating clear regulatory guidelines for the crypto industry. The group will host its first roundtable soon.
The formation and work of the task force emphasize the importance of regulation in the crypto industry to ensure clarity and market stability.
