[SEC Plans to Announce Major Cryptocurrency Initiatives, Involving Customized Issuance of Crypto Investment Contracts and Tokenization of Securities] BlockBeats reports that on August 12, amid the stagnation of the 'Cryptocurrency Market Structure Act' (also known as the CLARITY Act) in the U.S. Congress, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is preparing to launch two major initiatives in the coming days, which could further boost the U.S. cryptocurrency industry. The SEC announced that it will hold a public meeting on Friday to 'create a customized issuance mechanism for certain investment contracts involving crypto assets.' Additionally, the SEC plans to soon unveil an 'innovation exemption' initiative, allowing tokenized versions of tradable securities. This move could reshape the U.S. stock market landscape and pave the way for 24/7 trading of stock tokens on the blockchain. [Original Link]
