This dream team of crypto experts hails from various corners of the SEC. They’ve got legal, policy, and operational skills that would make even the most seasoned crypto trader green with envy. Peirce assures us that this group is dedicated to finding workable solutions to the most complex crypto regulatory problems.

“These folks are not only super smart, but they’re also totally jazzed about tackling the toughest crypto regulatory issues,” she said in a press release.

The leadership team includes Richard Gabbert as Chief of Staff, Michael Selig as Chief Counsel, Taylor Asher as Chief Policy Advisor, and Sumeera Younis as Chief of Operations. Supporting their efforts are Senior Advisors Landon Zinda, Donald Battle, Bernard Nolan, Laura Powell, Veronica Reynolds, Christopher Rice, Mark Sater, Andrew Schoeffler, Frank Sensenbrenner, and Robert Teply.

This task force was created in January 2025 under Acting Chairman Mark Uyeda. Their goal? To create clearer regulatory guidelines, streamline compliance processes, and refine disclosure standards while ensuring enforcement efforts remain focused and effective.

But wait, there’s more! The Crypto Task Force is also hosting a series of public roundtable talks called the “Spring Sprint Toward Crypto Clarity.” The first event is scheduled for March 21 and is titled “How We Got Here and How We Get Out – Defining Security Status.”

Commissioner Peirce is looking forward to drawing on the expertise of the public in developing a workable regulatory framework for crypto. She emphasizes that these roundtables will be a crucial platform for dialogue and collaboration. This initiative aligns with President Trump’s vision to foster crypto innovation and establish America as the global leader in the digital asset space.

So, get ready to witness the crypto regulatory showdown of the century! Stay tuned for more updates on the SEC’s Crypto Task Force and their quest to bring order to the crypto chaos. 🤠🚀
