SEC Commissioner Mark Uyeda confirmed that Donald Trump’s DeFi project, World Liberty Financial, will face the same regulatory framework that other crypto-related firms. He says that Trump’s DeFi must navigate unclear regulations with strong legal support. Uyeda acknowledged that the SEC’s actions against crypto have created the impression that the agency is politicized. However, he highlighted that the SEC focuses on regulating disclosure, and not determining the merit of projects. Hence the agency will require World Liberty Financial to meet the same transparency standards as any other firm, regardless of its unique characteristics.
