Odaily Planet Daily News In the wake of the U.S. House of Representatives passing a landmark stablecoin bill earlier on Thursday, Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chairman Paul Atkins stated that the SEC is considering implementing an innovative exemption policy to encourage the development of asset tokenization. At a press conference, he said: "SEC staff are considering what additional changes need to be made within our regulatory framework to encourage asset tokenization, including the establishment of an innovative exemption policy that allows for novel trading methods and the introduction of more precise exemption measures to facilitate the construction of other components of the tokenized securities ecosystem." Atkins expressed appreciation for the passage of the stablecoin legislation and informed reporters that the SEC looks forward to establishing "clear rules" for the digital asset space. The bill has now been submitted to President Trump for signing. (Bloomberg)
