The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Cryptody Task Force will host four more roundtable discussions with the industry this spring, ranging from tokenization to distributed finance (DEFI).
Crypto Task Force’s First Roundtable Discussion – What was called the SEC’s “Spring Sprint for Crypto Clarity” was held last Friday in Washington, DC, when Task Force leader Commissioner Hester Perth called the SEC’s “Spring Sprint for Crypto Clarity.” Twelve industry lawyers spoke about issues related to the security status of tokens.
“The Crypto Task Force Roundtable is an opportunity to hear lively debate among experts about what regulatory issues are and what the committee can do to resolve them,” he said in a release on Tuesday.
The roundtable discussion is just one example of a fundamental overhaul of the SEC’s approach to cryptographic regulation. As the agency moves away from the so-called “enforcement regulations” put into practice by former chairman Gary Gensler, new leadership, including Pierce and Deputy Mark Weda, demonstrates a desire to improve working relationships with the crypto industry and provide clearer regulatory guidelines for industry participants.
The next roundtable in the series, “Between Blocks and Hard Places: Between Regulations for Crypto Trade,” is scheduled for April 11th. The next discussion covers topics including cipher custody (April 25), tokenization (May 12), and distributed finance (June 6). Each roundtable will take place in Washington, DC and will also be streamed live.
