BREAKING: Following the Dismissal of the Binance Case, the SEC Announces Another Piece of Good News for the Cryptocurrency Market

The Division of Corporate Finance of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has published a new clarification regarding staking activities in Proof-of-Stake (PoS)-based networks in an effort to provide greater clarity regarding how crypto assets relate to federal securities laws. The statement announced that certain types of staking transactions do not need to register with the SEC. In the statement published by the Department of Corporate Finance, it was stated that staking activities defined as “Protocol Staking” and performed on open and permissionless networks using the PoS consensus mechanism are not considered “securities offerings” under the federal securities laws. Therefore, it was stated that there is no requirement to register with the SEC for such transactions.

These operators are selected randomly or according to certain criteria as “Validators” according to certain protocol rules. In this process, validators receive both newly minted cryptocurrencies and a share of transaction fees in exchange for verifying new blocks.
