The U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission announced that its Crypto Task Force will host a series of roundtables across the United States to give additional stakeholders an opportunity to meet with Commissioner Hester Peirce, who leads the Task Force. The programme extends the spring roundtables held in Washington, D.C., with an emphasis on reaching participants who were unable to travel and may not have been represented in prior policymaking discussions. Sessions are scheduled from 4 August through 5 December in Berkeley, Boston, Dallas, Chicago, New York City, Irvine, Cleveland, Scottsdale and Ann Arbor, including two New York City stops. The Task Force is particularly seeking input from crypto-related projects with 10 or fewer employees that are less than two years old; participants are asked to submit meeting requests by email with the preferred city, one or two attendee names, and a brief description of the team and project. The SEC also plans to publish a list of participating projects and indicated that stakeholders it cannot meet can still provide written input.
