Baby steps
In a little more than a week, the US federal regulators have stepped up their crypto game in order to bring clarity to the nascent market. As <a href="https://u.today/sec-makes-historic-decision-by-not-taking-action-against-a-cryptocurrency-startup">reported</a> by U.Today, the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) made a historic decision by issuing their very first crypto-related ‘No Action’ letter, confirming that the tokens issued by startup TurnKey Jets were not securities. The US regulatory watchdog also published its token framework. While there are still plenty of unanswered questions, the guidance was viewed as the first positive step for the US Blockchain industry.
On top of that all, the Token Taxonomy Act is heading to Congress again. If passed, it would clarify what a crypto token is and exempt those tokens that fir the definition from being treated as securities by the SEC, thus reducing uncertainty in the market.

Catching up
A lot of countries, such as Switzerland and Malta, are ‘more welcoming’ to non-security tokens than the US. The UK has also made more progress in that department than the US regulators. That channels Michael Arrington’s <a href="https://u.today/techcrunch-founder-urges-sec-to-take-actions-as-us-is-ceding-ground-to-markets-with-clear">criticism</a> of the SEC who claimed that the SEC had to act swift actions to regulate crypto businesses, or they would start fleeing to European and Asian markets.
Klayman is optimistic expectations about the ongoing regulatory developments:
<blockquote>
‘While the quest for legislative perfection is admirable, so is the courage to listen to the blockchain community’s concerns and take action in response. Blockchain literally requires collaboration, as does changing existing laws. The Bills themselves are likely to evolve.’
</blockquote>
However, the real question is what comes next.
