The firm has positioned itself within the regulatory landscape established by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under its leadership, which has adopted a stringent approach to crypto classifications.  Nevertheless, with impending leadership changes, as SEC Chair Gary Gensler announced his exit and pro-crypto Donald Trump prepares to assume office in 2025, the regulatory atmosphere and the potential reclassification of these tokens could pose challenges to the firm’s operations.
