Citing BitcoinWorld, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) will launch its crypto innovation exemption in January 2025. The initiative, announced by SEC Chairman Paul Atkins, aims to provide temporary relief from securities laws for qualifying crypto projects, enabling faster product development and market entry. The exemption is intended to foster innovation while maintaining investor protections, with eligibility criteria expected to include project maturity, disclosure standards, and investor limits. The move is seen as a significant regulatory shift that could attract more venture capital and talent to the U.S. crypto industry.
