The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) are set to present a collaborative framework for cryptocurrency regulation next week. This marks the first systematic effort by the two agencies to address jurisdictional ambiguities and fragmented rules in the crypto space. Newly appointed CFTC Chair Mike Selig and SEC Chair Paul Atkins will lead the event, aiming to create a clearer legal environment that balances innovation with investor protection. The joint initiative is seen as a move to harmonize regulatory approaches and reduce long-standing differences between the SEC and CFTC. This collaboration is expected to decrease compliance uncertainty, potentially attracting more institutional investment into the cryptocurrency market. The announcement comes amid a shift from previous "crypto-friendly" policies, signaling a new era of regulatory cooperation in the U.S. financial landscape.
