SEC Chairman Paul S. Atkins is pushing for clear digital asset regulations. In a new statement, he welcomed the President’s Working Group (PWG) recommendations. These reflect months of inter-agency cooperation focused on crypto policy.
Atkins believes regulation can fuel innovation, not stifle it. He says the U.S. must lead the world in digital asset development, both to protect investors and to maintain global leadership.
A New Crypto Playbook
The PWG report outlines a roadmap for crypto oversight. It encourages collaboration between federal agencies like the SEC and CFTC. Atkins confirmed the SEC will continue crafting new rules under existing laws. He also committed to supporting future legislation in Congress.
Atkins thanked President Trump for backing the crypto industry. He noted that past administrations lacked this vision. “Thank goodness President Trump does,” he said, adding that unified action is long overdue. The proposed framework is designed to safeguard financial stability and offer a secure path for crypto adoption. It also calls for greater transparency and investor protection.
Innovation with Guardrails
Atkins said innovation and safety must go hand in hand. The goal is to help U.S. entrepreneurs succeed. Without creating cracks that allow fraud or financial risks to slip through. He pushed for smarter, adaptable rules that grow with technology instead of falling behind it.
Atkins also pointed to the collaborative effort ahead. He plans to work closely with SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce and the agency’s Crypto Task Force. To build smart, adaptive policies that support innovation while closing the regulatory gaps that still exist.
U.S. Aims to Lead the Global Crypto Race
The message is clear: America wants to lead the crypto revolution, not follow it. Atkins echoed the President’s recent call for global systems to run on American tech.
He said the PWG report is a milestone moment, offering the “rules of the road” that the crypto market has long lacked. With regulation in place, Atkins believes the U.S. can become the safest and most dynamic crypto hub in the world.
