U.S. SEC Chairman: Future Crypto Policies Will Follow Public Rule-Making Process

U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chairman Paul Atkins has confirmed that upcoming cryptocurrency regulations will be developed through a transparent “Notice and Comment” rule-making process, rather than through enforcement actions.According to a report by Cointelegraph, Atkins emphasized the importance of public participation in shaping future digital asset policy, ensuring that industry stakeholders, legal experts, and the general public have an opportunity to submit feedback before any rules are finalized.This approach marks a shift toward greater regulatory clarity and inclusion, as the SEC moves away from case-by-case enforcement and toward a structured, consultative framework for crypto oversight.The move is seen as a step toward establishing a more predictable and collaborative environment for the U.S. cryptocurrency market, which has long sought clear guidance from regulators.
