1. On January 9th, the outgoing chairman of the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), Rostin Behnam, once again called on Congress to fill the regulatory gap in the cryptocurrency sector. He said that even after he no longer serves as chairman, he will continue to advocate for the CFTC to advance this initiative.

2. When a Wall Street Journal reporter later asked about the situation in the new year, Behnam stated that cryptocurrency legislation will take time, and mentioned the new composition of the presidential administration and Congress. He pointed out that the legislation will require six to ten months, and the federal agencies' subsequent rulemaking will take another year. He also said that the acting chairman will play a role in the future regulatory transition. During a presidential administration change, the acting chairman typically leads the agency temporarily until they are appointed as the chairman or someone else is appointed.

3. Behnam said: "I do believe that the acting chair on day one will change the regulatory approach, the current commissioners have been talking about sandboxes and creating environments where crypto participants can essentially operate without fear of enforcement or regulation, because it's a controlled environment."

4. He added that the legislative efforts by lawmakers, including Debbie Stabenow and Patrick McHenry, are "not perfect," but are still good initiatives, "I think the status quo, which is where we currently are with the existing regulations, is not sufficient to address the problem."
