SEC approves innovation exemptions allowing tokenized stock trading in the U.S.
The Securities and Exchange Commission issued "innovation exemptions" enabling authorized trading venues to offer tokenized stocks in the U.S. The exemptions last five years, take effect immediately, and require platforms to use automated market makers and give issuing companies 30 days notice before listing third-party tokens. The decision follows the failure of the Clarity Act crypto legislation to advance in Congress two days prior.
