Experts suggest that the drive from Wall Street to integrate financial systems onto blockchain infrastructure could persist utilizing current regulatory frameworks, even as the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) encounter increased scrutiny and uncertainty regarding the longevity of their established regulations.
