The SEC proposed Regulation Crypto Assets introducing a compliance framework with two fundraising exemptions for token sales: a $5 million startup cap over four years and a $75 million annual limit with disclosures. It also includes a conditional safe harbor allowing some crypto assets to be reclassified as non-securities, aligning US regulation with global efforts like the EU's MiCA.
