Odaily News After the U.S. House of Representatives passed a landmark stablecoin bill early Thursday, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chairman Paul Atkins said the SEC is considering an innovation exemption policy to incentivize the development of asset tokenization. He said in a press conference: "SEC staff is considering what other changes are needed in our regulatory framework to incentivize asset tokenization, including the establishment of an innovation exemption policy to allow novel trading methods and the introduction of more precise exemptions to promote the construction of other components of the tokenized securities ecosystem."
Atkins praised the passage of the stablecoin legislation and told reporters that the SEC looks forward to “creating clear rules” for the digital asset space. The bill now goes to President Trump for his signature. (Bloomberg)
