TechFlow, April 10 — According to an official report, Caroline D. Pham, Acting Chair of the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), announced on April 8, 2025, her support for the Department of Justice's new policy ending the "regulation by enforcement" approach toward the digital asset industry. Pham directed CFTC staff to adhere to the President's executive order and the DOJ's policy, shifting enforcement focus toward combating fraud and market manipulation rather than filing lawsuits solely for violations of registration requirements.
Pham stated: "For too long, multiple federal agencies' 'legal war' against digital asset innovators has created unfairness and uncertainty, undermining trust in the regulatory process and hindering U.S. competitiveness."
