His stance marks a sharp departure from the stricter, anti-industry approach taken by his predecessor, <strong>Gary Gensler<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Most Tokens Are Not Securities<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking at the <strong>Wyoming Blockchain Symposium 2025<\/strong>, Atkins explained that the classification of cryptocurrencies depends more on <strong>how they\u2019re packaged and sold<\/strong> rather than on the tokens themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cJust the token itself is not necessarily a security \u2014 and probably not,\u201d he said. \u201cThere are very few, in my view, tokens that are securities. But it depends on the package around it and how it\u2019s being sold.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This perspective stands in stark contrast to Gensler\u2019s approach, which treated the majority of tokens as securities under U.S. law. That stance led to widespread enforcement actions and a regulatory climate many in the industry described as hostile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Friendlier Regulatory Approach<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Since taking over in April, Atkins has repeatedly stressed the need for <strong>regulatory clarity<\/strong>. He has also sought to create a more <strong>welcoming environment<\/strong> for the crypto industry, aiming to end years of uncertainty. His comments build on recent positive developments, including the launch of <strong>Project Crypto<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is Project Crypto?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Unveiled in July, <strong>Project Crypto<\/strong> is an SEC-led initiative to establish clearer rules for the crypto industry, covering areas such as <strong>token offerings, custody, and trading practices<\/strong>. The project\u2019s goal is to give businesses practical guidance while ensuring regulations do not hold back innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Atkins also noted that the SEC is prepared to use <strong>interpretative guidance, exemptions, and other tools<\/strong> to modernize outdated financial rules that don\u2019t fit today\u2019s digital asset landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Push for U.S. Leadership in Digital Assets<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The SEC\u2019s friendlier stance aligns with the Trump administration\u2019s efforts to keep the U.S. at the forefront of global digital asset markets. A separate <strong>Working Group on Digital Assets<\/strong> is developing a unified framework to encourage innovation, while Congress has passed several key bills \u2014 including the <strong>GENIUS Act<\/strong>, the first federal framework for stablecoins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Future-Proofing Crypto Regulation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Atkins emphasized that the SEC\u2019s role is not just to provide clarity now, but also to protect the industry from <strong>regulatory overreach in the future<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe must craft a framework that future-proofs the crypto markets against regulatory mischief,\u201d he said. \u201cI look forward to working with my counterparts across the Administration and Congress to get the job done.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This rewrite is structured like a professional news article, with headlines and smooth flow for better readability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a major policy shift, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chairman Paul Atkins has clarified that only a very small number of cryptocurrencies should be classified as securities.
