About SECCryptoCustodyRules
The SEC has proposed a crypto-asset custody framework that would allow registered investment advisers to self-custody clients’ crypto assets if they meet security requirements, maintain insurance and undergo independent accountant examinations. The proposal also revise third-party custody requirements for regulated funds and advisers, and allow eligible state-chartered trust companies to serve as custodians. A 60-day public comment period would begin after publication in the Federal Register.

CRYPTO REGULATION UPDATE
The SEC has proposed a new framework that could allow investment advisers and regulated funds to self-custody crypto under certain conditions.
That could change how institutions hold digital assets.
But here's the big question:
🔐 Should institutions have more freedom to self-custody crypto, or should assets stay with regulated custodians?
What’s your take? 👇

The SEC proposal treats crypto custody less as a product feature than a governance function. Allowing adviser self-custody, but tying it to security controls, insurance, and independent examinations, could widen options while setting a high operational bar.
The comment period will show whether those safeguards are workable in practice.

SEC Chair Paul Atkins says the agency's proposed crypto custody framework would give investment advisers and funds a compliant path to hold crypto assets, and that more regulatory proposals are on the way. He argued onchain markets should not be pushed offshore. This is a proposal, not a rule, and the reports give no timeline or final text. Permission to hold an asset is not demand for it, so the real test is whether advisers actually use the path once it exists.

“Our work is not finished. More regulatory proposals are on the horizon.”
The SEC has now proposed a crypto-specific custody framework for advisers and regulated funds.
In other words 👉 The SEC's crypto rulemaking push isn't stopping here.
Atkins says the goal is to modernize U.S. financial rules and keep onchain markets in America.
THE U.S. CRYPTO RULEBOOK IS STILL BEING BUILT. 🚀
Bitcoin's rally is flow-driven, not leverage-driven — funding rates sit at just 5.4% annualized, suggesting spot buying rather than speculative froth. The divergence from gold (which fell 8.5% in September while BTC rallied 12%) suggests this isn't a simple "debasement trade."
The immediate catalyst was the soft jobs data, but the structural driver is the SEC's innovation exemption issued Sept 17 the first genuine regulatory catalyst since the CLARITY Act failed.
