Hester Peirce Ends Over 8-Year SEC Commissioner Term, Previously Advocated for Token Safe Harbor and Led Crypto Task Force

Odaily News: U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Commissioner Hester Peirce ended her term today. She served at the agency for more than 8 years, repeatedly dissenting when the commission chose to take enforcement action rather than formulate rules for the industry to follow, and earlier proposed a token safe harbor plan.

Hester Peirce previously led the Crypto Task Force and stated that the SEC's duty to protect investors includes using its regulatory authority to provide regulatory boundaries for the rapidly expanding digital asset industry. (CoinDesk)
