SEC Proposes Rule to Ease Crypto Custody Hurdle for Investment Advisers
AI take
The significance lies in the SEC acknowledging that the existing custody framework is a practical barrier for advisers, not just a compliance detail. Advisers who have stayed on the sidelines, and the clients seeking crypto exposure through regulated channels, are the immediate audience. The open question is whether this proposal advances to a final rule or stalls, since no effective date or specifics were given—leaving the timeline and scope uncertain.
