The former SEC Commissioner Paul Atkins, who is expected to take over as the new leader of the SEC, has shown interest and knowledge in the crypto space. He compared the collapse of FTX to fraud and praised Hester Peirce. Atkins is expected to have a more positive and cooperative attitude towards the crypto industry, focusing on finding the right regulations to help the industry thrive. He believes that if the SEC were more accommodating, crypto companies would be more inclined to work directly in the US. Atkins's appointment is still in the nomination process, but he is seen as a potential leader who can facilitate growth in the industry while ensuring investor protection.
