<h1>Cryptoasset user financial privacy protections like bank customers, as Commissioner signals possible future rules rethink amid delistings</h1> An SEC Commissioner stated at a public roundtable that users of cryptoassets should receive financial privacy protections comparable to those applicable to bank customers, and indicated that regulatory approaches to digital-asset privacy may need reconsideration in light of blockchain growth; the operative consequence is limited to signaling potential future regulatory recalibration rather than creating or amending any binding legal requirement. The report further notes that privacy-focused cryptoassets have faced exchange delistings and regulatory pressure, but does not describe any enacted rule, enforcement action, exemption, or formal guidance changing the legal status, compliance obligations, or permissibility of trading or listing such assets.
