US SEC Chairman: Formulating 'Innovation Exemption' Policy for DeFi Platforms

According to CoinDesk, US Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman Paul Atkins stated at a crypto roundtable that the SEC is developing an 'innovation exemption' policy for DeFi platforms. Atkins mentioned that he has asked staff to explore modifying rules to provide regulatory exemptions for on-chain financial systems, allowing entities under SEC jurisdiction to quickly launch on-chain products.

SEC crypto working group head Hester Peirce emphasized that publishers should not be held accountable for the use of code by others, but centralized entities cannot evade regulation by using the label 'decentralized.' Currently, SEC Republican commissioners hold a majority with a 3:1 ratio and are pushing for more crypto-friendly policies. Atkins stated that blockchain technology has enabled financial transactions without intermediaries, and the SEC should not hinder such innovation. #比特币走势观察 $ETH
