The Blockchain Association has urged the U.S. SEC to rescind Rules 611 and 610(e) of Regulation NMS, arguing these rules, designed for traditional stock markets, restrict the development of tokenized securities markets by not accommodating automated blockchain settlement and execution.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech.

◆ The Wire takeaway

SEC's potential rollback of legacy trading rules opens the door for blockchain-based trading platforms to challenge legacy exchanges by using faster, integrated settlement methods. You need to prepare to navigate evolving execution standards beyond just price.
