ME News Report, April 28 (UTC+8), SEC Chairman Paul Atkins and CFTC Chairman Mike Selig stated at the Bitcoin 2026 Conference that the regulation of digital assets in the United States is entering a “new phase,” with the two agencies working together to advance a crypto regulatory framework and encourage related businesses to stay and develop within the U.S. The parties mentioned that the jointly issued token classification guidelines have distinguished between digital commodities, collectibles, and tokenized securities, and emphasized the push for clearer, future-oriented legislative rules. Paul Atkins also said that the SEC is preparing to launch an “Innovation Exemption” and plans to allow companies to test on-chain tokenization and securitization tools within a regulated environment in the coming weeks.
