Former US President Donald Trump is reportedly considering appointing ex-SEC Commissioner Paul Atkins as the SEC Chairman. Gary Gensler, who is known for his anti-crypto stance, will be stepping down from his role in January 2025.

Bitcoin recently hit a new all-time high, nearly reaching $100,000, while XRP has also seen strong gains, climbing to the third position among the top cryptocurrencies.
