#USHouseMarketStructureDraft

A discussion about market structure in the U.S. House of Representatives aims to clarify the classification of digital asset transactions. As Eleanor Terrett, a journalist at Forbes, mentioned, the draft states on page 49 that transactions involving the sale of digital assets are not considered securities, provided that the buyer is not granted ownership rights in the issuer's business, profits, or assets. Essentially, buying and selling digital assets in the secondary market, as opposed to purchasing directly from the issuer, will not automatically trigger U.S. securities laws unless the sale conveys ownership or rights in the company's profits or assets.
