#USHouseMarketStructureDraft According to Odaily, a new discussion project on the market structure of the United States House of Representatives aims to clarify the classification of digital commodity transactions. As reported by Forbes journalist Eleanor Terrett, the project specifies on page 49 that transactions involving the sale of digital commodities do not constitute securities, provided that they do not confer to the buyer rights of ownership over the company, profits, or assets of the issuer. Essentially, buying and selling digital commodities on the secondary market, rather than directly from the issuer, will not automatically trigger U.S. securities laws, unless the sale confers ownership or rights over the profits or assets of the company.
