On 5 May 2025, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (US SEC) announced a rescheduling of its upcoming Crypto Task Force roundtable on decentralised finance (DeFi). Originally slated for 06 June 2025, the roundtable titled “DeFi and the American Spirit” will now be held on 09 June 2025. The Commission confirmed that all prior registrations remain valid for the new date.
This roundtable is part of the US SEC’s ongoing efforts to examine the regulatory treatment of decentralised protocols and platforms through its United States Crypto Task Force public dialogue series. The event is expected to address core questions concerning how DeFi aligns with, or, challenges the existing US legal frameworks, particularly in relation to investor protection, disclosure obligations, and federalism in financial innovation.
The Commission has encouraged new registrants to continue applying via the official portal. Additional logistical details, agenda updates, and panelist lists will be made available in the days ahead on the Crypto Task Force webpage hosted by the US SEC.
