CryptoWorld reports that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has proposed to repeal two rules in its National Market System regulations, including Rule 611, which prohibits “trade-throughs.” The proposal is seen as a major unlock for tokenized U.S. stock trading, which would remove legal barriers for trading on decentralized platforms. Alex Thorn, head of research at Galaxy, said the proposal would provide greater flexibility for tokenized stock trading, especially because automated market makers (AMMs) cannot follow the existing trade-through rules when executing orders. The SEC plans to solicit feedback within the next 60 days and may adjust the proposal based on public comments.

A 60-day public comment period, and it’s likely that Wall Street lobbyists are already sharpening their fists—let’s see how the final game unfolds.

Alex Thorn is right—AMMs simply can’t match orders the way traditional exchanges do; these rule changes are spot on.

Is AMM finally able to legally operate in the US stock market? If this comes to fruition, the walls between DeFi and traditional finance will be halved.

SEC has finally woken up; abolishing Rule 611 is like giving a green light to tokenized stocks, and the RWA track is about to take off.

Once the trading crossing ban is lifted, the compliance costs for decentralized platforms to launch US stock tokens will significantly decrease, benefiting all RWA project teams.
