27-5-2025 – Fresh calls for comprehensive staking guidelines have emerged from the cryptocurrency sector, with the Crypto Council for Innovation spearheading efforts to secure clear-cut regulations from America’s financial watchdog.
Speaking at New York’s Solana Accelerate gathering, the Council’s staking policy chief Allison Muehr revealed that recent months have witnessed unprecedented engagement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), marking a significant shift in regulatory dialogue.
Whilst noting improved communications with the watchdog, Muehr candidly assessed the progress towards regulatory clarity at merely a quarter of the desired outcome. The revelation comes amidst mounting pressure from Web3 infrastructure providers, who continue to navigate through murky regulatory waters.
The remarkable uptick in constructive discourse between industry stakeholders and the SEC over the past four months has outpaced achievements from previous years. However, the Commission has yet to issue formal directives on staking operations, leaving market participants eagerly awaiting concrete guidance.
