The SEC proposed Regulation Crypto Assets introducing two tailored exemptions from registration for offerings of covered investment contracts involving crypto assets, along with a non-exclusive safe harbor from the investment contract definition and preemption of state registration. The proposal specifies requirements for two fundraising tiers, transitional conditions for issuers, and secondary market rules while maintaining anti-fraud liabilities.
