TechFlow, April 28 — According to Forbes, under the leadership of new chair Paul Atkins, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is gradually adopting a more orderly and innovation-friendly approach to digital asset regulation. The SEC has recently issued regulatory guidance on meme coins and stablecoins, providing market participants with clearer compliance direction.
However, recent developments involving the Trump family's cryptocurrency ventures have intensified scrutiny over the SEC's independence. Eric Trump's planned appearance at the Token2049 conference and the controversial TRUMP token linked to the Trump family have sparked debate. Democratic Senators Elizabeth Warren and Adam Schiff have sent letters demanding an ethics investigation into the TRUMP token, questioning its practice of offering meetings with the president in exchange for token sales.
