U.S. SEC releases its 2026 regulatory agenda, with plans to advance crypto asset regulatory reform by the end of this year. The agency intends to revise multiple rules applicable to broker-dealers and crypto trading platforms, including adjusting brokers’ minimum liquid capital requirements, customer asset protection standards, and record-keeping provisions, to clarify how these rules apply to crypto assets. Meanwhile, the SEC also plans to revise the regulatory framework for trading platforms and explore launching "safe harbor" and regulatory exemption mechanisms related to crypto asset issuance, custody, and trading—aiming to provide clearer regulatory guidance for the market while continuing to crack down on illegal activities. The SEC notes that the new rules are designed to enhance market certainty, boost capital formation and innovation, and ensure adequate investor protection. This direction aligns with the industry-friendly regulatory path SEC Chairman Paul Atkins has pursued since taking office, marking a sharp contrast to the law enforcement-dominated regulatory approach of former Chairman Gary Gensler.

Naver Financial and Dunamu have delayed the completion of their full stock swap transaction to December 31, marking the second postponement of the deal. The transaction, which aims to integrate Dunamu—operator of South Korea’s largest crypto exchange Upbit—into Naver Financial, was originally scheduled to close on September 30. Dunamu unveiled the new timeline on the 6th via a corrected disclosure of documents first submitted last November, with unfinished digital asset legislation and pending antitrust review cited as key variables. The company has pushed its extraordinary general meeting from August 18 to November 19, and reset the shareholder record date to October 22. Multiple government approvals remain required for the deal to proceed, including merger clearance from the Korea Fair Trade Commission (FTC), approval for Naver Financial’s major shareholder change under credit information regulations, and acceptance of Dunamu’s major shareholder change filing under specific financial transaction information laws. Dunamu noted that progress in any of these steps could further extend the timeline or even lead to the deal’s collapse. It also pointed out that the Digital Asset Basic Act currently under parliamentary review is a practical variable affecting the transaction’s progress and outcome. When the bill is enacted, regulators are simultaneously considering imposing bank-style strict liability rules on exchanges, requiring platforms to compensate users for losses caused by hacking incidents.

CNBC stock commentator Jim Cramer said that despite recent weak market sentiment toward Nvidia and sustained pressure on its share price, the company remains a core player in the AI industry. He noted the current sell-off of Nvidia has been excessive, with its forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio dropping to near this year’s lowest levels. Cramer pointed out that while some firms—including Chinese AI company DeepSeek—are developing in-house AI chips, they still heavily rely on Nvidia’s technology, and no signs have emerged yet that the company will lose its industry-leading position. Additionally, he stated that some investors have sold Nvidia shares recently to free up capital for other tech stocks, including newly listed SpaceX.
