Hester Peirce to Join Regent University as Associate Professor in November

Hester Peirce, known as 'Crypto Mom,' will join Regent University School of Law in Virginia as an associate professor this November. According to Odaily, this information was revealed in a recent press release from the university. Peirce currently serves as a commissioner at the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and leads the cryptocurrency working group. Her new academic role is seen by the market as a potential indication that her tenure at the regulatory body may be nearing its end. According to the announcement, she will teach courses on securities regulation, financial markets, digital assets, and public policy in her new position. Industry observers suggest this move could further influence the personnel structure and future direction of the U.S. crypto regulatory policy team.
