The search for the next chair of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is gaining attention, with former Binance CEO Brian Brooks being considered a top contender. Brooks, who is also a board member of the Hedera Foundation, has a background in financial regulations and has advocated for sensible cryptocurrency regulations. Other potential candidates include Dan Gallagher, Paul Atkins, and Brad Bondi. President-elect Donald Trump has promised to remove current chair Gary Gensler if he does not resign, and there have been legal challenges against the SEC and Gensler's alleged overreach in the crypto sector.
