Current overview (not historical)

AI overview

The Zcash Group has submitted a proposal to the SEC requesting that issuers be allowed to prove fundraising compliance without publicly disclosing full wallet records. The proposal seeks to establish a new disclosure regime that protects privacy while meeting regulatory compliance needs, permitting the use of accounting records, cryptographic proofs, and selective disclosure of relevant records. This follows reports of public wallet logs exposing founder histories, which have prompted the group's demand for a fix.

    Zcash policy group urges SEC to allow token issuers to prove fundraising compliance without exposing full wallet activity

    Report first recorded Oct 27, 17:01

    The Zcash policy group Pretty Good Policy for Zcash submitted a letter to the SEC arguing that token issuers should be able to substantiate fundraising claims using zero-knowledge proofs or accounting records rather than exposing all wallet activity. The proposal comes as the SEC considers a disclosure regime that would require material token economics and insider allocations to be disclosed, but PGPZ contends that full transparency is unnecessary and potentially harmful to financial privacy.
