ON THE POD Hester Peirce on Crypto Industry's 5 Biggest Concerns President Trump made big crypto promises on the campaign trail. With Gary Gensler gone and the SEC now under new management, his administration stands ready to deliver on the agenda with digital asset regulatory clarity. In our latest episode of Bankless, SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce – an outspoken advocate for digital asset liberties and regulatory restraint – joined David Hoffman to discuss the implications of changing agency leadership on crypto’s future. Day one of the Trump Administration saw Commissioner Peirce appointed as head of the SEC’s freshly formed Crypto Task Force, and its first move was rescinding SAB 121, a controversial accounting policy that restricted financial institutions from offering crypto custody services. Although Gary Gensler’s relentless trickle of crypto lawsuits traumatized industry participants and discouraged engagement with American regulators, Commissioner Peirce hopes to build healthy relationships with crypto projects and encourage experimentation through practical solutions that uphold regulation. We didn’t get all the answers, but it was certainly refreshing to hear a lead crypto regulator finally engaging with the industry! Here’s how Hester responded to the crypto industry’s top 5 pressing concerns. 👇
