đ¨ SEC Chair Pushes for a Clearer Crypto Framework
SEC Chair Paul Atkins has proposed a âtoken taxonomyâ, a plan to sort digital assets into clear categories: securities, stablecoins, and everything in between. The goal is to replace years of courtroom guessing with a rulebook developers and investors can actually follow.
Atkins hinted that classification shouldnât be static. A token might start as a security when first issued but evolve beyond that once a network decentralises and runs on its own. Itâs a nuance regulators have rarely acknowledged before.
For the industry, that shift matters. Builders would finally know how to launch and list without crossing invisible lines. Exchanges could align listings with federal standards. And investors could stop treating clarity as a luxury.
The message is simple, the SEC wants structure, not silence, and that alone changes the tone of U.S. crypto policy.

SEC's Atkins Drops Crypto Taxonomy Bombshell: Clarity or Cop-Out? Quick Critique Binance Square, fresh from BlockBeats/Binance News: SEC Chair Paul Atkins just sketched a "token taxonomy" to sort securities from the rest. No more Howey Test roulette? Let's break it fast â highs, lows, and my verdict. The Framework (TL;DR):Tokenized Securities: Yep, they're securities (stocks/bonds on-chain).
Network Tokens ($ETH $SOL
): Commodities â utility > profits from managers.
Non-Tokenized NFTs/Collectibles: Safe â vibes, not yields.
Digital Tools (IDs, tickets): Utility wins; no SEC grip.
Not exhaustive; tweaks ahead. Gensler who? Atkins is going pro-innovation.Wins: ETH/SOL greenlit for inflows (up 1-2% already). NFTs & tools get breathing room â DeFi devs, rejoice! Aligns with CFTC harmony for a compliance glow-up.Flaws: Vague on stables/RWAs. "Decentralization" test? Subjective AF. Vote in "months"? Crypto waits for no one â gray areas linger.Score: 7.5/10 â Lifeline for majors, but needs teeth. Bullish for ETH moonshots; cautious for hybrids.Your take? Taxonomy savior or SEC tease?
