SEC Chair Gary Gensler Likely To Resign In 2025 Following Biden’s Exit: 10X Research

cryptonews.com:

A new report from crypto research company 10X Research on July 21 suggested that Gary Gensler’s time as Chair of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) could be coming to an end as early as next year, should current U.S. President Joe Biden’s exit from the 2024 presidential race lead to a change in administration.

Originally slated to conclude on June 5, 2026, Gary Gensler’s term as SEC Chair could be cut short, according to the latest report from the Markus Thielen-founded organization.

This prediction hinges on the historical tendency of federal regulators to resign when a new administration takes office. Such a change could have substantial implications for the cryptocurrency space.

Should this scenario unfold, with Republican nominee Donald Trump emerging victorious, Thielen estimates Gary Gensler “will most likely resign” by January or February 2025.

News of Thielen’s prediction follows closely on the heels of President Joe Biden’s announcement that he would not seek re-election.

“I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala (Harris) to be the nominee of our party this year,” Biden stated on July 21st. “Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump. Let’s do this.”

However, given the open primary, Harris must still secure her party’s nomination ahead of November, though no other politician has yet challenged her for the position.
