US Government Paves Way for Safer, Easier Crypto Buying on Big Exchanges

If you’ve been wary of buying crypto on unfamiliar websites, a new option may be coming soon. US financial regulators have stated that well-known, regulated stock markets like the Nasdaq and New York Stock Exchange are allowed to offer direct cryptocurrency trading.

The goal is to provide a safer, more familiar environment for people to invest in digital assets, with stronger rules to prevent fraud and protect investors.

US policy on crypto is changing under the Trump administration, as shown by the new staff guidance. Since January, both Congress and the White House have been working to create clearer rules for things like stablecoins and to define the regulatory jobs of the SEC and CFTC.
