The Blockchain Association has voiced strong support for Raincard’s Agentic Payments Alliance, a collaborative initiative designed to shape the future of digital asset payments and influence proactive crypto policy. The alliance includes major industry participants such as Avalanche (AVAX), Circle, and Uniswap, with a focus on creating standards for digital asset transactions while encouraging innovation and regulatory compliance.
In a separate statement on August 18, Blockchain Association CEO Summer Mersinger commented on the SEC’s new Regulation Crypto Assets, emphasizing the importance of incorporating industry feedback into regulatory approaches. The SEC’s framework is expected to reshape how cryptocurrency entities handle compliance and could influence operational strategies across the U.S. market.
The timing underscores a broader push for regulatory clarity. The Blockchain Association represents a coalition of crypto industry leaders advocating for transparent rules, while the SEC has jurisdiction over securities practices, making the new regulation significant for crypto compliance. Traders are watching how the alliance and the SEC’s implementation affect digital asset markets, with stakeholders focused on potential shifts in compliance requirements and market strategies.
