Tokenised US Stock Venues Must Give 30 Days’ Public Notice, SEC Clarifies

TL;DR: SEC staff guidance spells out a 30-day public-notice requirement for venues seeking to operate under the temporary tokenised-stock exemption. The SEC’s experiment with blockchain-based stock trading comes with a meaningful preparation period. Guidance published on October 20 says a tokenised securities venue relying on the agency’s conditional innovation exemption must publish a public operating notice at least 30 calendar days before starting. The document does more than specify a deadline. It says venues should have their operations and access standards ready for production when they disclose them, and must keep the notice accurate as details change. A platform cannot simply announce that it intends to trade tokenised shares and treat that as permission to begin immediately. There are issuer protections too.
