По мнению ведомства, инициатива может ослабить защиту инвесторов и ограничить надзор штатов за выпуском токенов. Комиссар DFPI Кей Си Мохсени заявил, что Калифорния выступает против ослабления федеральными регуляторами полномочий штатов и мер защиты. Предложение позволяет квалифицированным эмитентам привлекать до $5 млн за четыре года в рамках исключения для стартапов, а другое исключение для криптофинансирования — до $75 млн в течение 12 месяцев. Эмитенты должны будут раскрывать сведения о проекте, рисках и другую информацию, необходимую для оценки инвестиций; в некоторых случаях также потребуются финансовая и регулярная отчётность. Федеральные законы о ценных бумагах сохранят за штатами право расследовать мошенничество с ценными бумагами, обманные практики и незаконную деятельность брокеров-дилеров. Блокчейн-платёжная компания Ripple, криптовалютная биржа Coinbase и оператор биржи Nasdaq поддерживают пересмотренное предложение. DFPI отметил, что его список отслеживания мошенничества пополнился почти 200 новыми криптосвязанными схемами — на 30% больше, чем годом ранее.19ч. назадSecuritize Adds 12 Tokenized U.S. Stocks on Solana With USDC SettlementSecuritize launched 12 tokenized U.S. stock products on Solana, covering Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia, Tesla, Meta and others.
