最新报道:SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce reiterated that tokenized securities remain securities under U.S. law, even as companies increasingly explore blockchain-based alternatives. Speaking at a digital assets conference, Peirce emphasized that the underlying asset's nature determines its regulatory classification, not the technology used. She acknowledged growing industry interest in tokenization but cautioned against assuming blockchain adoption automatically changes legal status. The SEC has previously taken enforcement actions against unregistered security token offerings. Peirce, known for her crypto-friendly stance, suggested regulators should provide clearer guidance to foster innovation while maintaining investor protections. Her comments come as major financial institutions ramp up tokenization projects.
