🪙 What happened?
US lawmakers questioned SEC Chair Paul Atkins because:

Crypto enforcement actions have dropped sharply

Some lawsuits against crypto companies were dismissed or paused

Lawmakers suspect plitical influence, especially links to Trump-related crypto projects

⚖️ Why this matters for crypto:

📉 Less enforcement = more uncertainty (rules look weak or changing

🐂 Markets often like lighter regulation (bullish sentiment short-term)

⚠️ Long-term risk: unclear rules can scare big institutional investors

Big Picture:

This shows the US is still divided on crypto regulation—some want strict control, others want crypto-friendly policies.
