Lawyers at Gibson Law Firm have said that the SEC's recently issued memecoin guidance may suggest that it will adjust its cryptocurrency regulatory policies and even affect the application of the Howey test.
The SEC has previously issued a statement saying that memecoin should generally not be considered a security because its purchasers' funds are not concentrated on the development of related projects, and the price depends on market speculation and collective sentiment. This position contradicts the SEC's previous views in lawsuits against cryptocurrency exchanges, and may affect the trading of digital assets in all secondary markets. Analysts believe that this move shows that the SEC is gradually moving away from the tough regulatory approach under former Chairperson Gary Gensler, bringing a clearer direction for US cryptocurrency policy.
