In enforcement cases against Binance and Cumberland DRW, the SEC has requested that courts delay proceedings based on its crypto task force’s work in developing a regulatory framework.

The SEC has launched a Crypto Task Force to bring clarity to digital asset regulations, tackle crypto securities, stablecoins, and exchanges, and engage with industry leaders. Here's what it aims to do.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has launched a ‘Crypto Task Force’ page on its website, outlining the agency’s crypto regulatory agenda under the agency’s new leadership. This initiative follows the exit of former SEC Chair Gary Gensler under President Trump’s administration and signals a move away from the SEC’s previous enforcement-driven stance on cryptocurrency.
