Forbes: The market is paying attention to the statements made by the SEC Chairman on Bitcoin at the 2026 conference, with expectations for BTC to return to $80,000 heating up
According to Forbes, Paul Atkins, the chairman of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, recently reiterated the advancement of "Project Crypto" and announced that he will work with the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) to develop a classification framework for digital assets, clarifying when tokens are recognized as securities, while also introducing an "innovation exemption" to support on-chain trading of tokenized securities.
The market views this as one of the most proactive shifts in crypto regulation in the history of the SEC, marking its formal abandonment of the old model of "regulation by enforcement" in favor of clear rule-making. This move may signal a stronger entry point for institutional capital that has been on the sidelines for a long time and could drive the price of Bitcoin back above $80,000. Currently, the price of Bitcoin is around $77,586, and the market is paying attention to Paul Atkins' further statements at the Bitcoin 2026 conference in late April.
