The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission unveiled its regulatory agenda Thursday, according to Reuters. The move sets the stage for sweeping reforms in cryptocurrency oversight and corporate disclosure requirements. SEC Chair Paul Atkins said the agency will propose rules on digital asset offerings, exemptions, and safe harbors, as well as clarify how broker-dealer rules apply to crypto. The SEC is also considering allowing crypto to trade on national securities exchanges and alternative trading systems, a move that would deepen ties between digital assets and traditional finance. Trump’s SEC has dropped lawsuits filed by Biden-era regulators against major exchanges like Coinbase and Binance, signaling a shift in approach. The agency also outlined plans to streamline disclosure requirements and reduce compliance burdens for public companies.
