The first batch of tokenized stock trading platforms under SEC innovation exemption are expected to announce their operational plans in the next quarter
Taylor Lindman, Chief Legal Advisor of the SEC Crypto Task Force, stated that under the 5-year innovation exemption, the first batch of tokenized stock trading platforms are expected to announce their operational plans next quarter, and the SEC has received multiple companies' intentions to participate. This exemption allows the platform to tokenize US listed stocks on the blockchain through licensed AMMs and liquidity pools, with the token retaining shareholder rights such as dividends and voting. SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce stated that the existing transaction size cap supports commercial operations, and this exemption is a transitional arrangement before the establishment of long-term rules.
