The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has revealed the list of the individuals who will be attending the roundtable on the regulation of cryptocurrencies for trading on April 11, 2025.
The event will be called “Between a Block and a Hard Place: Tailoring Regulation for Crypto Trading” and will discuss how the SEC should regulate trading in cryptocurrencies.
Some of the leading companies in the crypto space, including Uniswap, Coinbase, and Cumberland DRW, will be present through key personnel such as Uniswap Labs Chief Legal Officer Katherine Minarik, Coinbase Vice President of Institutional Product Gregory Tusar, and Cumberland DRW Associate General Counsel Chelsea Pizzola.
These companies were previously under the scrutiny of the SEC, and some lawsuits were filed against them but were dismissed by the current administration.
Other participants of the roundtable will be Jon Herrick, the New York Stock Exchange representative, and Richard Johnson, the CEO of Texture Capital. Other attendees include SEC Acting Chair Mark Uyeda and Crypto Task Force Chief of Staff Richard Gabbert.
This is the second of five webinars that the SEC’s newly minted Crypto Task Force is hosting during the Spring Sprint Toward Crypto Clarity. The first of them took place in March and was dedicated to the legal framework of cryptocurrencies, while the subsequent meetings will discuss such topics as custody, tokenization, and decentralized finance (DeFi).
At the same time, the SEC is reconsidering several statements made by its staff regarding crypto, which it may change or withdraw in accordance with the current focus of the regulator.
This is in line with the Trump administration’s attempts to review the regulation of the crypto industry.
