SEC’s Crypto Task Force hits the road with nationwide roundtables

The Securities and Exchange Commission is taking its pro-crypto messaging on the road, planning a series of events for its Crypto Task Force that will be held across the U.S. starting on Aug. 4. 

Commissioner Hester Peirce and members of the SEC’s Crypto Task Force will hold roundtables in 10 cities through the end of the year to ”provide opportunities for additional stakeholders” to meet with the commissioner and her team. This is a follow-up to the series of roundtables about crypto the SEC held earlier in the year. 

“We want to hear from people who were not able to travel for the roundtables that took place this past spring in Washington, D.C. and may not have had a voice in past policymaking efforts,” Commissioner Peirce said in a press release Friday. “The Crypto Task Force is acutely aware that any regulatory framework will have far-reaching effects, and we want to ensure that our outreach is as comprehensive as possible.”
