THE SEC WANTS TO PUT ITS CASE AGAINST BINANCE ON HOLD The Securities and Exchange Commission asked a court to pause its case against Binance, underscoring a new approach to the crypto industry under the Trump administration. The SEC made the request in a joint motion filed late Monday with the crypto exchange. It proposed a 60-day stay while a new task force, set up by President Trump's acting SEC Chairman Mark Uyeda, works on a regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies.
