SEC Chairman: Must Ensure Entrepreneurs Can Access On-Chain Funding Without Facing Endless Legal Uncertainty

By: theblockbeats.news|2025/09/11 03:12:35

BlockBeats News, September 11: Paul S. Atkins, Chairman of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), delivered a keynote speech at the OECD's inaugural Global Financial Markets Roundtable, stating that the SEC has long used its investigative, subpoena, and enforcement powers as a weapon to disrupt the crypto industry. This approach is not only ineffective but also harmful. The SEC will now provide clear and predictable rules so that innovators can thrive in the United States. President Trump has issued an order to make the U.S. a global cryptocurrency hub.

Most cryptocurrencies are not securities, and the SEC will clearly define the boundaries. It must ensure that entrepreneurs can raise funds on-chain without facing endless legal uncertainty. The SEC must allow "super app" trading platforms to innovate, thereby increasing market participants' choices. Platforms should be able to offer trading, lending, and staking services under a single regulatory framework. Investors, advisors, and brokers should also have the freedom to choose from various custody solutions.

The SEC will collaborate with other agencies so that platforms can provide trading of crypto assets (whether they are securities or not), as well as services such as staking and lending, under a single regulatory framework. The SEC's goal is simple: to ignite a golden age of financial innovation on American soil. Whether through tokenized ledgers of equity or entirely new asset classes, the SEC hopes to break new ground in the U.S. market, under U.S. regulation, for the benefit of American investors.
