April 17, 2023 I am in favor of including crypto asset securities to the definition of exchange to the proposed rules. Companies are tokenizing stock in crypto to get around reporting and regulations and I don't think it's fair for them to do so. In addition, the IRS is handling crypto purchases and sales as a security and taxed similarly. The same rules should apply to protect the public and companies from fraud. These rules work non crypto and the main difference is that crypto assets are exchanged on a public ledger.
