Odaily Planet Daily 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 encourage the development of asset tokenization. He said at a press conference: "SEC staff are considering what other changes need to be made within our regulatory framework to encourage asset tokenization, including the establishment of an innovation exemption policy to allow novel trading methods and the introduction of more precise exemption measures to promote the construction of other components of the tokenized securities ecosystem." Atkins praised the passage of stablecoin legislation and told reporters that the SEC looks forward to "establishing clear rules" for the digital asset field. The bill has now been submitted to President Trump for signature. (Bloomberg)
