‘Wrong approach’ – Crypto lobby rejects Wall Street’s tighter DeFi rules for tokenized securities

The Blockchain Association (BA) has strongly opposed a proposal from Citadel Securities and traditional finance (SIFMA) calling for stricter regulation of DeFi protocols that handle tokenized securities. In a letter to the SEC, the BA argued that applying existing securities laws, which are designed for intermediaries, to neutral decentralized infrastructure is the "wrong approach." While affirming that tokenized securities are still securities, the BA emphasized that the SEC should consider how modern blockchain technology works before regulating, rather than automatically classifying DeFi infrastructure as exchanges or brokers. This pushback aligns with earlier criticism from the DeFi Education Fund (DEF). Citadel and SIFMA, however, maintain that all platforms handling tokenized securities must be under regulatory oversight to ensure a level playing field and investor protection, regardless of whether they are custodial or decentralized. The outcome hinges on the SEC's decision, which could potentially be challenged in court if it is not codified by the CLARITY Act.
