Crypto Staking Doesn’t Violate U.S. Securities Law, SEC Says

In a move that’s got crypto bulls popping champagne (or at least tweeting rocket emojis), the SEC just clarified that staking doesn’t trip U.S. securities wire. Finally—some regulatory daylight for yield-hungry bag holders.

No more legal limbo? Stake on. The agency’s stance cuts through years of industry hand-wringing—though let’s be real, they’ll probably pivot faster than a VC at a bear market.

Funny how ‘not illegal’ counts as progress in crypto. Meanwhile, Wall Street still charges 2% fees for index funds that underperform. Priorities, people.
