Clarity was needed since there is some debate whether agency jurisdiction over cryptocurrency has been fully established by law. The letter was well within Congress’ oversight duties.

The focus of the bipartisan March 16, 2022 letter was on the cryptocurrency industry as a whole. It was approved by Financial Services Committee Oversight legal staff. The letter sought clarity on SEC positions regarding its document request authority for crypto firms in general.

Rep Soto was one of the first voices in Congress to call for greater regulation of cryptocurrency to protect consumers. He filed & co-introduced Digital Taxonomy Act & Token Taxonomy Act in 2018. He passed parts of DTA out of the House this term to advance these efforts.
