According to Eleanor Terrett, Chairman Atkins stated during his opening remarks at the SEC crypto roundtable that innovation in the cryptocurrency trading sector has been stifled for several years due to ongoing market and regulatory uncertainty fostered by the SEC. Traders should note that this regulatory climate has contributed to reduced momentum and participation in digital asset markets, affecting liquidity and the launch of new trading products (source: Eleanor Terrett on Twitter, April 25, 2025).

According to Eleanor Terrett, SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce has initiated the first crypto industry roundtable at the SEC HQ in Washington D.C., marking a significant step in regulatory engagement with the cryptocurrency sector. This roundtable is expected to address key regulatory concerns and aims to facilitate open dialogue between industry leaders and regulators, potentially impacting market operations and compliance strategies.

According to Crypto Rover, the US SEC Crypto Task Force is set to hold its first Bitcoin and Crypto Roundtable on March 21, which will be streamed live. This event is considered bullish for the cryptocurrency market, indicating a potential positive shift in regulatory engagement and understanding.
