Paul Atkins, a pro-crypto regulator, is the leading candidate to head the SEC, signaling a potential shift in U.S.
crypto policies under Trump. Paul Atkins, a veteran regulator and pro-crypto advocate, is reportedly a top contender to lead the US Securities and Exchange Commission under President-elect Donald Trump’s administration. Sources close to Trump’s team suggest Atkins, a former Republican SEC commissioner during George W. Bush’s presidency, has been interviewed for the position. This development comes as the Trump administration signals plans to take a crypto-friendly approach to regulation.
Although Atkins is the frontrunner, other candidates are being considered, including current SEC Commissioner Mark Uyeda, former Commodity Futures Trading Commission Chairman Heath Tarbert, and Robert Stebbins of Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP. However, insiders suggest Atkins is favored within Trump’s inner circle, with discussions reportedly taking place at Mar-a-Lago to shape the administration’s regulatory agenda.
