The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Cryptocurrency Special Task Force is conducting a nationwide roadshow of roundtable discussions to expand stakeholder engagement beyond prior Washington, D.C. sessions. Officials say the initiative is intended to capture perspectives from market participants and constituencies that were previously underrepresented in federal policy-making.
Organizers emphasize the need for broad outreach given the potential impact of any future regulatory framework. The roadshow itinerary includes stops in Berkeley (Aug 4), Boston (Aug 19), Dallas (Sep 4), Chicago (Sep 15), New York City (Sep 25 & Nov 12), Los Angeles (Oct 2), Cleveland (Oct 24), Scottsdale (Oct 29), and Ann Arbor (Dec 5).
By soliciting targeted input through regional roundtables, the task force seeks to ensure its engagement is comprehensive and empirically grounded, providing documented feedback from diverse industry and consumer groups to inform subsequent regulatory deliberations.
