The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has launhed "Project Crypto," a comprehensive initiative aimed at modernizing securities regulations to enable American financial markets to move on-chain and fulfill President Trump’s vision of making the U.S. the "crypto capital of the world".
This move marks a significant departure from the enforcement-focused approach of the previous administration, with the new strategy emphasizing innovation-friendly regulation and clear guidelines for crypto asset distribution, custody, and tokenization.
The SEC’s "Project Crypto" aims to bring traditional securities onchain by rewriting outdated rules, enabling tokenized and non-tokenized assets to trade side-by-side on compliant, blockchain-based platforms.

Project Crypto: A new initiative by the SEC to modernize securities rules around digital assets, with the goal of bringing U.S. financial markets onchain.
The initiative includes drafting "clear and simple rules of the road" for crypto asset distribution, custody, and trading, moving away from legacy rules that have been considered outdated and ill-suited for digital assets.
It also proposes updated rules that allow both tokenized securities and non-security crypto assets to trade side-by-side on regulated, onchain platforms.
SEC Chair Paul Atkins: The SEC chair who announced "Project Crypto" during a landmark address at the America First Policy Institute, aiming to bring clarity, innovation, and global competitiveness back to U.S. markets by transitioning them to an era of on-chain infrastructure and transparent crypto rules.
He stated, "Many of the Commission’s legacy rules and regulations do not make sense in the twenty-first century—let alone for on-chain markets".
Super-apps: Platforms that would allow broker-dealers to offer a broad suite of financial products, including tokens, staking, and lending, under a single license, effectively replacing the costly and complex web of state-by-state regulations.
Crypto Task Force: A new SEC Crypto Task Force, led by Commissioner Hester Peirce, will roll out draft rules and host public comment periods across tech and finance hubs nationwide. Early pilots in tokenization, decentralized finance, and digital asset custody will launch over the coming months.
