U.S. regulators have approved significant advancements in the crypto sector, allowing for the issuance of tokenized stocks and granting crypto bank charters. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has issued a no-action letter, reducing enforcement risks for companies launching tokenized equities. Meanwhile, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) has granted national bank charters to Ripple and Circle, enabling them to operate under federal oversight and issue stablecoins. These regulatory moves aim to provide clarity and enhance liquidity in the crypto markets. Both the SEC and OCC have highlighted Countering the Financing of Terrorism as a critical compliance priority, ensuring that these new financial instruments adhere to stringent regulatory standards.
