The SEC’s new crypto task force will also coordinate with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) – which, under the leadership of former Chair Gensler and former CFTC Chairman Rostin Behnam, has been locked in competition with the SEC over which agency should be the primary regulator of the crypto industry.
“This undertaking will take time, patience, and much hard work. It will succeed only if the Task Force has input from a wide range of investors, industry participants, academics, and other interested parties. We look forward to working hand-in-hand with the public to foster a regulatory environment that protects investors, facilitates capital formation, fosters market integrity, and supports innovation,” said Commissioner Peirce in a statement.
The SEC previously published staff guidance in 2019, though it has not been referenced or discussed much in the past five years.
