Policy Deep Dive
In this Caveat Policy Deep Dive, our conversation and analysis revolve around preemption. Recently, Congress attempted to use preemption as a justification to pass a moratorium that would have overridden all current state AI legislation and prevented any new state AI bills from being passed. While the measure failed, this action is representative of a growing debate over how the government should regulate AI.

This week’s Caveat Briefing covers how the U.S. SEC has issued new guidance on crypto-based exchange-traded products, signaling the start of a broader regulatory framework that could accelerate the approval of dozens of crypto ETFs, including those tied to Solana, XRP, and even meme coins. While full rule changes are still in development, the guidance marks a shift in the agency’s stance under Republican leadership and could significantly streamline the listing process for new crypto products.
