After President Trump’s SEC Chair pick Paul Atkins was confirmed by the Senate and the regulator moved to dismiss (or soon dismiss) even more cases against crypto firms, the Securities and Exchange Commission ended the week with one more potentially positive development for U.S. companies.

“Participating firms could see what works and what doesn’t, technically and commercially,” said SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce, who leads the regulator's crypto task force. “Such trials could inform the Commission’s rulemaking efforts.”
