The mention of blockchain terminology in SEC filings reached a record high in February, exceeding 5,000 keyword mentions
ChainCatcher news, according to The Block, the mention of blockchain-related terms in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) EDGAR database reached an all-time high in February 2025, exceeding 5,000 keyword mentions, continuing a strong upward trend that began in mid-2023.This surge aligns with a significant shift in the SEC's approach to cryptocurrency regulation under the leadership of Acting Chair Mark Uyeda. Since the new government transition in January, the SEC has ended several high-profile investigations into major crypto companies such as Uniswap, Coinbase, Yuga Labs, Kraken, and Gemini, marking a clear departure from the "enforcement-based regulation" strategy of former Chair Gary Gensler.
