Speculations on the next chair of the Securities and Exchange Commission continue to swirl as incoming US President Donald Trump remains mum on the issue.<\/p>\n

Several names have been floated, with XRP\u2019s John Deaton and SEC\u2019s Mark Uyeda being two recent figures in the media. However, if the current insider talks are to be considered, it seems that Trump favors SEC lawyer Teresa Goody Guill\u00e9n<\/a> to replace Chairman Gary Gensler.<\/p>\n

Sources say Trump wants to overhaul the agency and avoid Gensler\u2019s \u201caggressive regulation\u201d on crypto. According to Trump\u2019s transition team, Teresa Goody Guill\u00e9n, an experienced securities lawyer, is leading the shortlist for the SEC chairmanship.<\/p>\n

If selected, Guill\u00e9n\u2019s appointment can drastically change the agency\u2019s policies.<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s Transition Team Looking For A Crypto Expert<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Crypto and the blockchain have become an election issue this year, with President-elect Trump offering vocal support for the industry. In one of his campaign statements, Trump said he would remove Gensler from office if he won. With Trump winning the election, speculations are swirling on the possible Gensler replacement.<\/p>\n

Multiple sources disclose that the current administration is looking for a crypto expert but can also soften the agency\u2019s position on crypto regulations. Many blockchain analysts see Guill\u00e9n as a perfect fit for the position because of her cryptocurrency and blockchain background and sensible approach to regulation.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Goody Guill\u00e9n \u2013 Blockchain Experience With Advocacy<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Guill\u00e9n brings a wealth of experience to the agency with her exposure to blockchain practice and securities laws. Guill\u00e9n is a partner at BakerHostetler and co-led the firm\u2019s blockchain practice.<\/p>\n

Brendan Playford of Masa said Guill\u00e9n is the best candidate among those who are floated for the position. Playford stated that Guill\u00e9n will implement the required changes to the agency.<\/p>\n

Guill\u00e9n indicated her experience working at the SEC office on her LinkedIn profile<\/a>. She served as the SEC\u2019s general counsel from 2009 to 2011 and has worked with former chief Harvey Pitt to provide recommendations on enforcement issues. Guill\u00e9n\u2019s crypto experience and advocacy make her a leading contender.<\/p>\n

Trump Team Quickly Moving To Finalize The Pick<\/strong><\/p>\n

Guill\u00e9n is among the many top-caliber names floated by experts and analysts in recent weeks. The shortlist for the position includes Brad Bondi of Paul Hastings, former SEC Commissioner Paul Atkins, John Deaton, and Mark Uyeda.<\/p>\n

According to multiple sources, Trump\u2019s transition team is looking to fast-track the selection process. Reports indicate that the team expects to formalize the pick before Thanksgiving.<\/p>\n

The team\u2019s urgency reflects Trump\u2019s commitment to overhauling the cryptocurrency industry and the SEC\u2019s regulations policies.<\/p>\n
