President-elect Donald Trump is evaluating Teresa Goody Guillén, a former SEC attorney and blockchain expert, as a potential choice for the new SEC chair. A partner at BakerHostetler, she co-leads its blockchain practice and is highly regarded by the crypto industry for her deep regulatory insight and pro-crypto stance. Trump’s team aims to revamp the SEC, seeking leadership that will curtail enforcement-heavy regulation and favor a measured approach to the crypto industry in the U.S. Goody Guillén’s supporters highlight her expertise and readiness to modernize the agency. She is among several candidates on a shortlist, with a decision anticipated before Thanksgiving. Source: Coindesk
