🚀Crypto Regulation: SEC & CFTC Plotting a Revival of the Dead Panel?🧟‍♂️

by

In a tale as old as the financial crisis, our beloved regulators, the SEC and CFTC, are reportedly caught in a web of talks to resurrect a committee that has seen more dust than action. 🕵️‍♂️

Word on the street, via the quill of Fox News’ Eleanor Terrett, is that these two titans of oversight are mulling over the idea of bringing back the CFTC-SEC Advisory Committee on Emerging Regulatory Issues – a committee that died a silent death in 2014, presumably from boredom. 😴

As the crypto world turns, President Trump’s AI and Crypto Czar, David Sacks, is drawing up plans that would make even the most seasoned bureaucrat’s eyes glaze over. A push for clearer crypto regulations? What’s next, a recipe for world peace? 🌍💕
