SEC Chair Atkins: Will establish a regulatory framework for on-chain markets and urges Congress to pass the CLARITY Act
Deep Tide TechFlow News: On May 9, according to the SEC official website, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chair Paul S. Atkins delivered remarks at the Special Competition Research Project AI+ Expo on May 8, taking a stance on the regulatory direction for AI and on-chain financial markets.
Atkins said the SEC will advance a number of regulatory initiatives around on-chain markets, including: setting related rules for the definition of “exchanges” for on-chain trading systems; clarifying the applicable scope of broker-dealer and dealer definitions in on-chain activities; clarifying the boundaries of the definition of “clearing agency” for on-chain clearing and settlement activities; and providing regulatory guidance for activities related to “Crypto Vaults.”
On AI regulation, Atkins emphasized that the SEC will not require companies to use specific models. Instead, it will adhere to its core responsibilities of protecting investors, maintaining market fairness and efficiency, and promoting capital formation—requiring companies to be accountable for the results of the AI tools they deploy.
Atkins also called on Congress to send the CLARITY Act to the President for signature as soon as possible, so as to provide long-term certainty for the digital asset market through legislation, and warned that if innovation is pushed offshore, it will repeat the FTX debacle and harm the interests of U.S. investors.
