The SEC released a new statement on crypto. It explains how companies should handle disclosures when offering or registering securities tied to crypto.
This is not about defining what is or isn't a security. It's about helping companies know what to share with investors when crypto is involved.
The guidance is useful for companies that are:
- Building blockchain networks
- Launching ICOs
- Issuing tokens that pay profits
- Using NFTs in games and raising money
The SEC wants investors to get clear info. Like:
- How the crypto project works
- What the timeline looks like
- What rights the token or security gives (like voting or dividends)
One key point: Even if a token is not a security, it can still be part of a securities offering. So, proper disclosure is needed.
This is not a full roadmap for registration. But it’s a step toward clarity. It shows the SEC is open to more direct communication.
This move signals a more open and practical approach. One that encourages better info for investors—without shutting the door on innovation.
