Trump Weighs Naming Ex-SEC Chair Who Sued Ripple as AI Policy Chief
30.09.2026 · Cryptonews
Donald Trump is mulling Jay Clayton for the role of America’s top AI official. The former SEC chairman would shape federal strategy on artificial intelligence if appointed.
Clayton launched the landmark lawsuit against Ripple during his tenure, accusing the company of unregistered securities sales. His possible return to government now ties directly to oversight of a completely different technology sector.
Placing a regulator known for crypto enforcement at the helm of AI policy hints at how the administration may approach emerging tech with an eye on accountability.
