Odaily News: Fox Business crypto reporter stated on the X platform that, according to a source familiar with the matter, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's tokenization innovation exemption will be further delayed, and relevant details will not be made public for the time being. The source noted that one possible reason is that the tokenization section in Section 10505 of the Clarity Act has been repeatedly negotiated among stakeholders, and any action taken by the SEC through the innovation exemption could affect the compromise proposal for that provision. This means that until the path forward for the Clarity Act becomes clearer, the exemption may remain on hold. The SEC still plans to hold a public meeting tomorrow at 10:00 a.m., during which it intends to propose new rules and exemption measures for fundraising transactions involving crypto assets, namely Regulation Crypto Assets.
