A House Committee on Financial Services hearing on Wednesday dredged up concerns about the pro-crypto regulatory shift under the Trump administration.
US lawmakers questioned Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chair Paul Atkins at a hearing on Wednesday about the agency's enforcement actions against the crypto industry and why several cases were dismissed since the leadership change.
Enforcement actions since US President Donald Trump assumed office, and appointed Atkins as SEC chair, are down by 60%, Representative Stephen Lynch said.
The Massachusetts Democrat cited the dismissal of several SEC lawsuits against the crypto industry, including the SEC's motion to dismiss the Binance case in May 2025, as examples of the dropped enforcement cases.
