“Traditionally, presidents decide who chairs the SEC,” Gensler indicated a possible departure.
Former SEC officials Dan Gallagher, Paul Atkins, and Commissioner Mark Uyeda, all critics of current crypto policies, are potential replacements.
Gary Gensler, the current Chairman of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC), may soon be replaced, with Donald Trump’s transition
team reportedly considering potential candidates.
Although Trump pledged in July to remove Gensler on the
first day of a second term, he cannot technically do so without cause until
Gensler’s term concludes in 2026. Cryptocurrency policy remains central to
Trump’s focus in selecting a new SEC head.
Crypto Regulation Faces Criticism

Dan Gallagher, former SEC commissioner and current Chief
Legal, Compliance, and Corporate Affairs Officer at Robinhood Markets, is a
potential candidate, according to Reuters. Gallagher has openly criticized
Gensler’s regulatory methods, particularly regarding cryptocurrency.
During a Congressional hearing in September, he argued that
the SEC’s enforcement-driven approach has created uncertainty, harming
innovation and weakening the United States’ position in digital asset markets.
Former SEC Commissioner Considered

Paul Atkins, another former SEC commissioner who was part of
Trump’s 2016 transition team, is also reportedly under consideration. Atkins
currently leads Patomak Global Partners and serves as co-chair of the Token
Alliance, an industry group promoting digital asset acceptance.
Mark Uyeda, Source: LinkedIn
In a 2022 interview, he expressed agreement with the SEC’s
stance on Bitcoin’s non-security status but criticized Gensler’s
enforcement-driven regulatory strategy.
Another possible candidate is SEC Commissioner Mark Uyeda,
who was reappointed in January. Uyeda has held various SEC roles, including as
an advisor to former Chairman Jay Clayton. He has been outspoken in his
disapproval of the SEC’s handling of crypto issues, labelling its policies a
“disaster” and calling for a top-down change.
Trump Team Weighs Appointees
While Gensler has achieved high-profile settlements,
including a $4.5 billion agreement with Terraform Labs, industry figures argue
that the SEC’s lack of clear crypto guidelines has undermined compliance
efforts.
In October, Gensler hinted at a possible departure, stating:
“Traditionally, presidents decide who chairs the SEC.”
Karoline Leavitt, Trump’s transition spokesperson, stated
that no final decision on potential appointees has been made.
