Senator Cynthia Lummis highlighted key takeaways from a recent Digital Assets hearing, noting that most tokens do not qualify as securities, the United States lags behind in cryptocurrency regulation, and stablecoins could modernize payment systems. SEC Commissioner Caroline Crenshaw criticized the agency's recent policy shifts, including the dismissal of the Coinbase lawsuit and other high-profile crypto cases, warning that these changes could erode market trust and weaken enforcement against fraud. She also linked the proliferation of fraud, including the FTX collapse, to unclear regulatory policies under former SEC Chair Gary Gensler. Crenshaw further questioned the SEC's guidance on memecoins, arguing that the lack of clear definitions and legal foundations undermines regulatory efforts. She expressed concerns that such ambiguity could enable bad actors to exploit regulatory gaps. The SEC has announced the formation of a crypto task force to reassess its approach.
