According to Cointelegraph, F/m Investments has submitted an application to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), seeking to record ownership of its flagship product, the F/m US Treasury 3 Month Bill ETF (TBIL), on a permitted blockchain. This would be the first instance of an ETF issuer seeking a special exemption from U.S. regulators for tokenized shares of a registered investment company.
