The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has taken a significant step forward for the cryptocurrency market by forming a special task force aimed at creating a regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies. This initiative will be led by Hester Peirce, known as “Crypto Mom.” According to QCP Capital, this action from the SEC could signify a long-awaited milestone in the world of cryptocurrencies.
SEC’s Initiative Boosts Market Sentiment
The SEC’s recent leadership changes and the push for cryptocurrency regulations have fostered a positive atmosphere in the market. Bitcoin 
$96,617 rebounded, gaining 3.8% and settling above the $105,000 mark, following the initial disappointment experienced during the early days of the Trump administration.
However, QCP Capital analysts noted that caution prevails among market participants due to the possibility of Trump failing to deliver on his previous promises regarding cryptocurrencies. As a result, Bitcoin’s upward potential remains limited.
MicroStrategy Shareholders Approve New Bitcoin Investments
MicroStrategy is committed to increasing its Bitcoin investments. The company’s shareholders approved a massive increase in the total authorized number of Class A common and preferred shares from 330 million to 10.3 billion. This substantial expansion bolsters the company’s capital base and positions it ahead of major players like Nvidia, Apple, Alphabet, and Amazon in the Nasdaq 100 Index.
MicroStrategy has plans to raise $42 billion through stock and convertible bond issuances by 2027. With a remaining issuance capacity of $5.42 billion, MicroStrategy appears set to continue increasing its BTC investments.
