SEC Proposes $75 Million Exemption for Crypto Token Sales Amid Shift to Decentralized Fundraising

The United States Securities and Exchange Commission has proposed a framework allowing crypto projects to raise up to $75 million annually through public token sales using an expanded Regulation A+ exemption. According to reporting by crypto.news, the initiative arrives roughly eight years after the initial coin offering boom and requires audited financials, ongoing reporting, and a transition to full registration. Market participants have largely migrated to alternative channels like meme coin launchpads and airdrops, meaning this regulatory pathway is not officially confirmed to gain widespread industry adoption.
