Trump nominates Paul Atkins, a supporter of cryptocurrency, as SEC Chair: A new time for digital assets.

Donald Trump wants Paul Atkins to be in charge of the SEC. The SEC is a group that makes sure people follow the rules when buying and selling parts of companies. Trump thinks Atkins will be good at making sure the rules are fair for everyone.

The SEC is also in charge of digital money like Bitcoin. Right now, the SEC is led by Gary Gensler, who wants stricter rules for digital money. But Gensler is leaving soon, and Trump wants to make America the biggest and best place for digital money.

Some people who work with digital money are happy about Atkins because they think he will be more relaxed about the rules. But some people are worried that Atkins won't make sure people are being honest with digital money.

Atkins has worked with money and rules for a long time. He used to work at the SEC, and he has also worked for companies that buy and sell parts of companies. He knows a lot about how money and rules work.

Trump has been interested in digital money for a while now. He even started his own company to buy and sell digital money. People who work with digital money hope that Trump and Atkins will make it easier to use digital money in America.
