Public information developments

The SEC cancelled the encrypted vote and the CTC set a new regulatory agenda.

The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) cancelled the meeting scheduled for 14 August, at which it should have decided whether to formally introduce a customized regulatory programme for encryption products on the grounds of “unforeseeable calendar issues”. Six days later, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) will convene an innovative conference entitled “The evolution of encryption regulation: from uncertainty to clarity” to discuss digital assets, automated AI agents and forecast markets. It was not the intention of the SEC meeting to develop new encryption laws, at which it was intended to vote on whether to issue rules on proposals for certain investment contracts and to begin a formal public comment process. Specific rules have not yet been published. Reuters reported that the initiative might create an exemption to allow eligible encrypted start-ups to raise funds without immediate compliance with the traditional securities registration framework. The concept of safe harbour and a more targeted initial exemption for digital assets enterprises have been discussed earlier by the Chairman of the SEC, Paul Atkins. The cancellation of the meeting had therefore delayed the start of rule-making and not rejected the policy.

Chime Financial explores the integration of the stabilization function into bank applications

According to Bloomberg, Chime Financial, a financial technology company, is exploring the integration of the currency stabilization function into its consumer bank applications and has requested a “end-to-end” currency stabilization wallet service for block-chain technology companies.

Chime currently has more than 10.4 million active users and is also a member of the Open Standard Alliance, which has previously announced plans to launch the joint stabilization currency Open USD.

Proposal by the United States SEC to remove encryption regulations, postponed meeting

The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) removed the much-awaited proposal for encryption regulation and postponed the meeting without giving a new date. The SEC was scheduled to announce its first major rule-making effort in the area of digital assets on Friday, but cancelled the meeting because of “unforeseeable scheduling issues”. The industry expects the SEC to take over the legislative relay, especially in the absence of progress on the Senate Digital Asset Market Transparency Bill. The proposal is expected to provide a limited framework for the issuance of encrypted securities without triggering the institutional registration requirement. The industry hopes that the SEC will begin this more durable form of regulation as soon as possible, but further action by the Government is still awaited.

The SEC postponed the encryption conference and the industry suffered a setback.

According to Bloomberg, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) cancelled a meeting scheduled for Friday, at which it was expected that a new plan for digital assets would be announced. This represents a further stagnation in the progress of encryption legislation in Congress.
