U.S. SEC's Atkins Posts Agency's Near-Term Agenda Jammed With Crypto Efforts
The U.S. SEC plans to ease rules on digital asset trading and disclosure, aiming to integrate crypto with traditional finance while enhancing investor protections.
- On September 4, 2025, SEC Chairman Paul Atkins unveiled a new rulemaking agenda focused on cryptocurrency regulation reforms in the United States.
- The agenda builds on recent regulatory changes and seeks to respond to feedback from financial markets and digital asset sectors regarding excessively strict regulations.
- Major efforts involve developing regulations governing how digital assets are marketed and sold, potentially incorporating specific exemptions, refining broker-dealer requirements, and enabling cryptocurrency trading on recognized securities markets.
- Atkins mentioned that the agenda includes several planned deregulatory measures aimed at easing compliance requirements and supporting the process of raising capital by creating more straightforward options for investors to access private business opportunities.
- These proposals mark a renewed SEC focus on innovation, market efficiency, investor protection, and could bolster ongoing growth in the digital asset industry during 2025.
