Bitcoin Holds Steady as SEC–CFTC Move Toward Crypto Rule Harmonization
The SEC is shifting gears.
Under Project Crypto, regulators are pushing for:
• An innovation exemption
• SEC–CFTC rule harmonization
• Clearer token definitions
• Less duplication, lower compliance costs
Translation: fewer gray zones, fewer enforcement-first surprises.
Chair Paul Atkins sums it up well: “We must stop treating innovation like a threat.”
This is a pivot toward rules-based oversight, with enforcement focused on fraud — not builders.
📌 Why it matters:
• Clear token taxonomy = less Howey roulette
• Easier paths for exchanges, issuers & DeFi
• Better disclosures + custody clarity for investors
Markets are watching.
