There is also the speculation that our favorite uncle Gary might also resign from his position as SEC chairman. This also implies that the crackdown on the cryptospace will be ending very soon hehehhehe. The Trump pump is being witnessed hehehe.
Under US law, a new president cannot fire the SEC chairman if he has done nothing wrong, but with the new administration putting so much pressure on Gary to resign, that will happen. There's been a lot of reporting, and I think it's largely true, Gary will be stepping down in the early days of Trump's presidency.
I am very much aware that a sitting president cannot fire a person who is appointed on a government position. The Donald would need congress and the senate to vote to impeach uncle Gary. This is certainly why everyone is not saying that he will be fire. It is only being speculated that he might resign.
I reckon Polymarket should create a prediction market where it will ask if uncle Gary will resign on 2025 heheheh. There is also a possibility that he might not resign and continue to annoy the cryptospace hehehehe.
As far as I know, most SEC chairmen will resign if the new administration comes to power, very few will continue to work until the end of their term because they will be under a lot of pressure from the new administration. I think Gary understands that, and that may also be why there are growing rumors that he will resign on Trump's Inauguration Day.
Based on history, I bet he will resign within days of Trump taking office, I don't think he will stay to wait for impeachment or be pressured by Trump.
Gary recently attempted to make a final pitch for the SEC to be allowed to regulate the cryptocurrency market before the Trump administration takes over the White House. I don't see what the point of this is because when Trump takes office he will reverse everything Gary did.

I reckon the SEC chairman's decision on his resignation would depend on who will be the sitting president of the next administration. If it was Kamala who was given the victory, we can be very much certain that un Gary will be very comfortable in his job heheheeh. We can also be quite certain that the Democrats similar to grandma Warren will have a bigger anticrypto army and the influence of grandma Yellen will be similar to the Biden administration.
In any case, agreed! Uncle Gary will resign because he is very much aware that no one likes him hehehehe.
