Quick Take

  • SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce introduced a proposed rule that would give token projects safe harbor for three years, allowing them time to sufficiently decentralize their networks 
  • The application for safe harbor would require a variety of disclosures, putting the details of many projects on the SEC’s radar
  • Though it’s only in proposal form, Peirce’s announcement is already making waves in the ecosystem.
