- Uyeda has been one of the few supporters of the crypto industry in the agency, in stark contrast to SEC Chair Gary Gensler.
SEOUL — The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) should create a special version of the S-1 form for digital assets, SEC commissionerMark Uyeda said at the Korea Blockchain Week in Seoul, South Korea.
The agency's current form, the primary application companies must fill out to register securities in the U.S., does not do justice to digital assets and other unusual financial products, Uyeda said. The regulator has not done enough for digital asset products looking to register in the country, he said.
