The Securities and Exchange Commission has called off an open meeting scheduled for Friday morning at which its three commissioners were to vote on proposing the agency’s first crypto-specific rules, Reuters reported on Thursday.
The formal notice, issued under the Sunshine Act and signed by SEC secretary Vanessa Countryman, records only that the meeting “has been cancelled,” making no mention of a new date. A spokesperson separately told reporters the session would move to a later date “due to an unforeseen scheduling issue,” without elaborating.
The commission had dated its original notice August 10, giving roughly three business days’ warning, with a single item on the agenda.
