The Securities and Exchange Commission, referred to as the SEC, has introduced an Innovation Exemption. This special allowance temporarily permits a restricted form of trading involving tokenized United States stocks. Specifically, this trading can take place on particular on chain venues designed for digital asset transactions.
This Innovation Exemption is subject to clear limitations and strict oversight. It mandates that any trading activity under its scope must comply with specific trading caps, which set limits on transaction volumes. Furthermore, comprehensive transparency requirements are a crucial condition of this exemption. These measures are designed to ensure clear visibility and accountability within the tokenized stock trading environment on these on chain platforms.
