The SEC proposed Regulation Crypto Assets, establishing a new federal framework for certain crypto asset investment contracts with exemptions for offerings up to $5 million over four years and $75 million over 12 months. The rule includes a conditional safe harbor for when these investment contracts end and preempts state registration requirements, aiming to simplify capital formation and clarify regulatory treatment of crypto securities.

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

◆ The Wire takeaway

You face a new federal path to raise capital with fewer restrictions and clear conditions when your crypto investment contracts are no longer securities. This opens US markets for crypto projects with retail investors under clearer rules and no resale limits.
