Trump Nominates Paul Atkins as SEC Chair, Highlights Crypto-Friendly Shift and Financial Stake in Digital Coin
Dec 8, 2024, 08:02 PM
Paul Atkins has been nominated by President-elect Donald Trump to lead the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Atkins, a former SEC commissioner, is known for advocating reduced regulations and promoting market efficiency. His appointment is viewed as a significant shift for the crypto industry, as he is considered crypto-friendly. Ripple executives have expressed optimism about this leadership change, citing the potential for a more favorable regulatory environment for digital assets. This marks a departure from the tenure of outgoing SEC Chair Gary Gensler, who was perceived as less accommodating to the crypto sector. Additionally, Trump had announced a new digital coin, in which he has a financial stake, three weeks before the election.
