Rumors Swirl: SEC Considers Trading Stocks Like Cryptocurrencies
Rumors are circulating that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is considering a radical shift: allowing stocks to trade like cryptocurrencies. Market analysts and industry leaders are abuzz with speculation, but no official confirmation exists yet.
Worldcoin (WLD) has seen a 37.42% increase over 30 days, despite a recent 7-day decline of 6.30% and a 24-hour drop of 2.89%. This volatility reflects the market's anticipation of potential changes. However, historical precedents show that intensive speculation can occur without definitive regulatory shifts, impacting market sentiments and corporate treasuries.
Experts speculate that such a move could introduce blockchain elements, similar to those used in cryptocurrency trading, fundamentally altering stock market structures. Previous SEC actions, like ETF considerations, have sparked speculation about mergers between traditional and crypto markets. Potential benefits include increased transparency and reduced transaction costs, but these remain purely speculative without official confirmation.
While the SEC under Paul Atkins is moving towards a more flexible 'Innovation Exemption' for crypto compliance, no official reaction or public statement has been made by key figures like Gary Gensler or major crypto influencers regarding the rumored stock trading shift. The financial sector remains cautious, awaiting definitive proposals from the SEC and major regulators.
