FCC currently uses the @provenancefdn Provenance Blockchain as the primary public blockchain and purchasers of Certificates may initially hold their wallets on the Provenance Blockchain. However, FCC may also use the #Polygon, #Aptos, #Avalanche, #Arbitrum, #Ethereum, #Solana, and #Base and other suitable blockchains for accounts upon request and subject to eligibility. The transfer agent’s blockchain network suitability framework is described in greater detail in the section “Suitability for Blockchain Networks” and includes certain key standards such as redundancy qualities, continuous uptime, block time, and transaction fees. Potential and existing Certificate holders must contact FCC’s transfer agent to determine eligibility to hold digital representation of Certificates on a blockchain other than Provenance and the availability of the other blockchain. Approval to hold a digital representation of a Certificate on a blockchain other than Provenance is subject to the sole discretion of FCC and its transfer agent. For more information regarding eligibility criteria for the available blockchain networks, see “Blockchain Network Suitability Framework.”

Ripple Labs, the leading blockchain company has initiated a dialogue with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to introduce greater regulatory clarity for digital assets. The company’s suggestion comes to Hester Peirce, who’s leading the newly formed Crypto Task Force by the SEC, who demanded public input for clear crypto tax rules. Crypto Mom Hester Peirce is willing to end the regulatory blockade created by the previous SEC administration under the leadership of Gary Gensler. Responding to this, Ripple slammed the Gary Gensler administration stating that it crypto administration was overly long, confusing, and not backed by any law. Notably, it also highlighted that the previous SEC administration relied on creating confusion among market participants to mask its failure to consistently uphold the law. In order to end the regulatory roadblock, blockchain startup Ripple Labs has made three proposals to the U.S. SEC in order to end any further confusion. As mentioned in our previous report, Ripple is working on a cross-appeal against the US SEC next month in mid-April, with the likelihood of a lawsuit settlement. Following the settlement, there’s a growing chance of having an XRP ETF and Ripple IPO launch by the end of 2025. Following the victory of Donald Trump in US Presidential Elections, the crypto regulatory landscape has been changing for the good as the Trump administration plans to bring several crypto-friendly policies in place. The SEC’s potential reversal of the Regulation ATS expansion may reduce compliance burdens on crypto exchanges and DeFi platforms, fostering greater innovation, as mentioned in our previous story.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is making a significant move, changing its stance on crypto regulation. The acting chairman, Mark Uyeda, has instructed SEC staff to explore discarding a controversial proposal that would have required certain cryptocurrency firms to register as alternative trading systems. This move indicates a shift in regulatory priorities and marks a departure from the previous administration’s approach, which sought to impose stricter oversight on the crypto industry. In 2022, the SEC proposed extending the definition of alternative trading systems (ATS) to include some crypto companies. This expansion was initially designed to enhance regulatory oversight in the Treasury markets but later encompassed digital assets. Related: SEC Drops Multiple Lawsuits and Investigations Against Crypto Firms—Here’s the List The proposal faced immediate backlash from the crypto sector, which argued that such measures would impose excessive regulatory burdens, stifling innovation and growth within the industry. Many industry stakeholders viewed it as a heavy-handed attempt to restrict crypto market activity rather than a genuine effort to provide investor protection. Mark Uyeda has explained that linking Treasury market regulation with crypto oversight was an error. He acknowledged that the initial plan unfairly grouped two distinct financial sectors under a single regulatory system. Therefore, the SEC is now reassessing its approach, aiming to separate the oversight of government securities from cryptocurrency regulations. Uyeda has also called for renewed discussions with the Treasury Department, the Federal Reserve, and market participants to reevaluate the original regulatory adjustments for government securities trading platforms. This strategic shift reflects the broader changes within the SEC under its current Republican leadership. Earlier this year, the agency launched a crypto task force to revamp its policy on digital assets. Related: SEC Abandons Cumberland DRW Suit: Ripple Case Next? The SEC has also started dismissing or pausing several pending lawsuits against crypto firms. These actions indicate a more flexible stance, favoring engagement and dialogue over enforcement-heavy tactics.
