SEC Crypto Task Force to Tour 10 U.S. Cities for Startup Input

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's Crypto Task Force will conduct a nationwide tour to engage with small crypto startups. The initiative aims to enhance participation in crypto policymaking.

The task force, led by Commissioner Hester Peirce, will visit 10 cities from August to December.
Focus is on projects with fewer than 10 employees and under two years of operation.
Meetings scheduled in Berkeley, Boston, Dallas, Chicago, and New York.
Purpose is to gather insights from those unable to attend previous roundtables in Washington, D.C.
The task force was established in January to create clearer regulations for the cryptocurrency sector.
