With Donald Trump's election and under the leadership of Hester Peirce, the US SEC has formed a new task force to improve crypto regulations.

Mark Uyeda's Appointment and Initial Actions

Following Gary Gensler's departure, Mark Uyeda took over as Acting Chair of the SEC and announced the formation of a new task force to refine the regulatory approach to cryptocurrencies, focusing on registration and disclosure improvements.

Core Goals of the US SEC Task Force

The task force aims to develop a comprehensive regulatory framework for crypto assets. Its responsibilities include establishing clear regulatory lines, pathways to registration, and judicious use of enforcement resources.

State of Crypto Regulations in the US

Despite Gensler's strict approach, the crypto landscape in the US improved in 2024, with the SEC approving Bitcoin ETFs from firms like BlackRock and Fidelity.

With a new administration and task force, the SEC aims to build a clearer, more transparent regulatory system for the crypto industry.
