The White House’s Working Group on Digital Assets has released its delayed report on cryptocurrency regulation, proposing a structured approach to oversight. Key recommendations include:
- Clear asset classification (securities vs. commodities)
- Dual oversight (SEC for securities, CFTC for commodities & spot markets)
- Banking rules, stablecoin policies, and tax guidelines
The report argues that well-defined regulations will strengthen the US position in digital assets. SEC Chair Paul Atkins backed the plan, stating it would “catalyze innovation, prevent fraud, and maintain US capital market dominance.”
