SEC Chair Paul Atkins has publicly stated his confidence that Congress will pass comprehensive crypto market structure legislation — and that President Trump will sign it into law. The declaration marks one of the clearest signals yet from the agency's top regulator that a long-awaited federal framework for digital assets is within reach.
Atkins, who took over the SEC chair role with a notably more crypto-friendly posture than his predecessor, has been a consistent advocate for clear regulatory rules of the road. His confidence in both Congressional passage and a presidential signature suggests the White House and Capitol Hill are closer to alignment on crypto policy than at any point in recent memory.
