Thirteen sources reported on the SEC's proposal to update its 1970s-era transfer agent rules for the blockchain age. The proposal could open floodgates to make America capital of digital cash, according to Fox Business and foxbusiness.com. JD Supra reported that the proposal includes tailored exemptions for cryptoasset offerings. The exemptions would allow certain crypto projects to raise funds without providing financial statements.
This is in line with the CLARITY Act, which SEC Chair Atkins has backed. Some outlets have noted that the proposal is part of a larger puzzle. According to Law360, the rule is the first piece of a larger effort to modernize the SEC's approach to crypto. The CFTC has also taken steps to explore crypto asset market structure rules, using existing authority if the CLARITY Act stalls.
The proposal has sparked interest in the cryptocurrency market. However, it is unclear what impact the SEC's proposal will have on the market in the long term.
