SEC Cancels Planned Open Meeting on Tailored Crypto Asset Offering Regime

Securities and Exchange Commission
United States
Published Aug 13, 2026

Summary

The SEC cancelled, via a Sunshine Act notice, its previously scheduled August 14, 2026 open meeting at which the Commission would have considered proposing new rules to create a tailored offering regime ('Regulation Crypto') for certain investment contracts involving crypto assets. The cancellation notice gave no reason and set no new date, leaving the anticipated crypto offering framework -- a key piece of the 2026 Regulatory Agenda -- in an indefinite holding pattern.
