Current overview (not historical)

AI overview

Vault12 has submitted a proposal to the SEC advocating for a 60-day no-objection period for legacy token listings. Under this framework, certifications submitted within the window would become binding conclusions for the SEC, unless they involve fraud or material misstatements. The plan specifically addresses 2018-issued VGT tokens, aiming to establish clear listing pathways for older assets. However, the proposal is contingent on SEC conditions, as the commission retains the authority to deem securities laws applicable if certifications are found inaccurate.

    Vault12 urges SEC to offer exchanges certainty on token safe harbor before listing legacy tokens

    Report first recorded Oct 21, 20:57

    Vault12, a crypto wallet backup firm, argues that centralized exchanges will not list legacy tokens like its VGT unless the SEC provides explicit immunity from future regulatory challenges. The firm states its 2018 token sale met all white paper commitments yet has never traded on a major exchange. Vault12 proposes a 60-day window after filing Form TR during which the SEC’s silence would make the safe harbor conclusion conclusive, giving exchanges the certainty needed to list tokens.
