2025年2月4日，SEC專員Hester Peirce擔任該委員會新近鑄造的加密特遣工作隊負責人，提供了有關工作隊目標的更多細節。

On Feb. 4, 2025, SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce provided additional detail regarding the objectives of the Commission's Crypto Task Force, which she heads. She began by managing expectations, describing the Task Force's work as a "journey" that "will take time," particularly with respect to "[d]etermining how best to disentangle" the "many cases" in pending litigation.

2025年2月4日，SEC專員Hester Peirce提供了有關委員會加密特遣部隊的目標的更多詳細信息，她負責。她首先要管理期望，將工作隊的工作描述為“需要時間”的“旅程”，尤其是在“ [d]方面，如何最好地解除待訴訟中的“許多案件”。

"Please be patient," she said. "The Task Force wants to get to a good place, but we need to do so in an orderly, practical, and legally defensible way."

她說：“請耐心等待。” “工作隊希望到達一個好地方，但我們需要以有序，實用和合法的辯護方式這樣做。”

During the same period, significant changes to the SEC Division of Enforcement's Cyber and Crypto Unit (CACU) were publicly reported, including the reassigning of staff to other tasks within the division and at least one unit leader reassigned to a non-Enforcement post, this just two years after the agency beefed up CACU headcount as it pursued a flurry of alleged failure-to-register and fraud-related cases.

在同一時期，公開報導了執法部門的網絡和加密部門（CACU）的SEC部門的重大變化，包括將員工重新分配到該部門內的其他任務，以及至少一名單位領導人將其重新分配給非執法職位，此該機構加大了CACU的人數僅兩年後，它追求了一系列涉嫌登記和欺詐有關的案件的一系列。

no-action letters

無行為字母

Commissioner Peirce explicitly welcomes requests for no-action letters – something not seen in some time with respect to crypto. Many will welcome a return to the practice of issuing crypto no-action letters. Such official statements of the SEC, which are publicly available on its website, may provide crypto industry participants a better understanding of the regulatory risks while the Task Force works toward its objectives.

Peirce專員明確歡迎請求無行為信件 - 在某些時候在加密貨幣方面看不到。許多人歡迎回到發行加密貨幣信件的做法。在其網站上公開可用的SEC的這種官方聲明可能會為加密行業參與者更好地了解監管風險，而工作隊朝著其目標努力。

Commissioner Peirce concluded her statement by again soliciting public comment and providing a form for requesting meetings with the Task Force "to discuss approaches to addressing issues related to regulation of crypto assets[.]" Persons requesting meetings are asked to provide a summary of the issues to be discussed, with the summary (and any other public comments) to be posted to the SEC's website. The SEC is not known for inviting market participants to request meetings with it, and many will undoubtedly take the Commissioner up on her offer.

Peirce專員在她的陳述中再次徵求公眾評論，並提供了一份表格，要求與特遣部隊開會，以討論解決與加密資產法規有關的問題的方法[。]”，要求要求會議的人提供有關問題的摘要。待討論，以及將發佈到SEC網站上的摘要（以及任何其他公眾意見）。 SEC並不以邀請市場參與者要求會議而聞名，許多人無疑將使專員提出她的提議。
