Bitcoin (BTC) and altcoins continue to hold strong despite the ongoing conflict between the US and Iran.

As the five-day deadline given by US President Donald Trump to Iran awaits to determine whether the next move will be an uptrend or a downtrend, a move in favor of cryptocurrencies has come from the US.

Accordingly, Michael Selig, Chairman of the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), announced today the establishment of an “Innovation Task Force.”

The task force aims to establish regulatory standards for innovative companies developing new products and technologies in the U.S. derivatives market.

The Innovation Task Force will create regulatory frameworks for several designated areas: “1) Cryptocurrency and blockchain technology, 2) Artificial intelligence and autonomous systems, 3) Prediction markets and event contracts.”

CFTC Chair Selig stated, “By creating a clear regulatory environment for companies driving innovation in new areas of finance, we can encourage responsible innovation and ensure that U.S. market participants don’t fall behind.”

The Innovation Task Force will be chaired by Michael J. Passalacqua, special advisor to President Selig.

The Innovation Task Force will work with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the CFTC on innovation.

While the CFTC is taking steps in favor of cryptocurrencies, the SEC, another major US financial regulator, also clarified in guidance published last week that crypto assets like Bitcoin are commodities, not securities. It was also stated that 16 altcoins, including Ethereum (ETH), are not securities.

Summary Dogecoin edges closer to $1 as its first U.S. ETF launch nears. Shiba Inu struggles to hold key support after a sharp price drop. Little Pepe’s $25m+ presale and Layer 2 plans position it as a potential new leader. Memecoins are back in the spotlight as Bitcoin steadies above $115,000 and speculative capital flows into the sector. Investors are asking the big question: which tokens have the momentum to deliver the next round of explosive returns? Dogecoin’s long-awaited ETF debut could set the stage for a run toward $1. Shiba Inu is battling crucial support, and Little Pepe’s record-breaking presale points to a new leader emerging in 2025. Meme legends continue to soar Dogecoin is trading at $0.2645 with a $39.8 billion market cap as investors await the launch of the Rex Shares–Osprey Dogecoin ETF (DOJE). Bloomberg analysts now expect the debut this week, which would make DOJE the first U.S. ETF tied to a memecoin. DOGE has already gained 15% over the past month despite short-term pullbacks, and analysts argue that sustained ETF flows could set up a rally toward $0.35 and eventually the long-anticipated $1 milestone. Shiba Inu is having a hard time staying above $0.00001303 after a sharp 13% drop from its recent highs. The drop has brought SHIB to the daily SMA 200 support level of $0.00001298, which could decide whether it bounces back or drops even more.
