🔔 Important crypto market news!
- SEC Chief Accountant Paul Munter has relaxed SAB-121 requirements that restrict banks from storing digital assets.
- Banks can avoid the requirements by obtaining permission from state regulators and meeting certain standards.
- Leading brokers can also bypass the rules if they do not store client keys and do not participate in transactions.
- However, large national banks are still under the OCC's supervision and must apply directly to the SEC.
- Despite the restrictions, this is a positive step for the crypto industry.
