SEC said some liquid staking activities have fallen out of security laws


The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has made it clear that some cryptocurrency -standing activities do not develop security offerings, a well -known step in the agency’s continued efforts to provide a clearer guide to digital asset regulation.

“The statement clarified the view of the division that, depending on the facts and events, the liquid activities of the staking covered in the statement were not involved in the offer and sale of security,” the regulator Says Tuesday, which refers to the main sections of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

“Today’s staking staking statement is a significant step in clarifying the staff’s perspective on crypto asset activities that does not fall inside the SEC area,” Chairman Paul Atkins said in a statement.
