The SEC and CFTC each took new steps on Thursday tied to onchain market activity, with the SEC granting temporary relief for tokenized stocks and the CFTC broadening software-related relief. The moves followed the Senate’s refusal to take up the market structure bill, while a CFTC official separately described tokenization as something that could reshape financial markets.
