SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce shed light on what an innovation exemption could look like.
Over the past year, both crypto firms and traditional finance players like Nasdaq and the Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation (DTCC) have explored tokenized equities.
Securities and Exchange Commission leadership unveiled details of a proposed innovation exemption for onchain securities, describing it as an incremental step to integrate tokenization technology into U.S. capital markets.
On stage Wednesday at ETHDenver in a question-and-answer format, SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce and Chair Paul Atkins shed light on what an innovation exemption could look like. Atkins has said he plans to unveil a plan to fast-track crypto products in the near future.
The tokenization exemption would "facilitate limited trading of certain tokenized securities on novel platforms with an eye toward developing a long-term regulatory framework," Atkins said on Wednesday.
Over the past year, both crypto firms and traditional finance players, including Nasdaq and the Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation (DTCC), have explored tokenized equities. If approved by the SEC, crypto companies could offer blockchain-based trading of traditional stocks, potentially putting them in direct competition with conventional brokerages.
This comes as global interest in tokenized stocks surges, with Kraken reporting some $25 billion worth of lifetime trading volume in its xStock product. Likewise, Robinhood's real-world-asset-focused blockchain has reportedly generated over four million transactions in its first week of operation.
While the SEC, under Chair Atkin, is accelerating its crypto-related rule-making, it has taken a more cautious approach to onchain securities trading and issuance in the U.S. Prominent SEC Commissioner Peirce previously said that “tokenized securities are still securities.”
In December, DTCC was authorized to tokenize certain highly liquid assets on pre-approved blockchains under a three-year authorization period. Last month, the New York Stock Exchange said it was developing a platform for the trading and onchain settlement of tokenized securities, which could allow for 24/7 trading.
On Wednesday, Peirce noted that some TradFi skeptics of tokenization argue a future innovation exemption could allow crypto firms to bypass existing rules. However, the commissioner voiced a more measured stance.
Both groups are likely to realize that the innovation exemption is not as monumental as either faction anticipated," Peirce said. "It would be an important step toward facilitating the integration of tokenized securities into our existing financial system, but it would not change the entire financial system overnight."
Atkins said people should be able to trade certain tokenized securities through automated market makers or other decentralized platforms that use algorithms to facilitate trading.
In my view, market participants should be able to engage with decentralized applications on public, permissionless blockchains if they desire," Atkins said. "But I expect, however, that many Americans will be more comfortable allowing intermediaries to custody and trade on their behalf."
People should make that decision, not the SEC, Atkins added.

Today market clear out and still crash seen next rejection btc show 55k so everyone still selling in future to enjoy more profit and still selling eth coin and wait change market trnd in march #XAI #Xrp🔥🔥 #XRPRealityCheck #XRPHACKED

🟠 $BTC retraced to the $67K zone after failing to hold higher resistance.
🔵 $XRP saw a sharper daily drop (~5%), underperforming BTC
Altcoins broadly in red, momentum slowing short term
Total market cap pulled back as traders de-risked. Nothing dramatic structurally, but short-term sentiment definitely cooled.
My take
1️⃣ BTC at $67K is still macro bullish territory. As long as we hold above key support levels (mid–high $60Ks), this looks like a healthy pullback, not a breakdown.
2️⃣ XRP’s 5% drop isn’t unusual. When BTC sneezes, high-beta alts catch a cold. XRP often exaggerates BTC’s move in both directions.

The UAE Royal Group holds $453.6 million in bitcoin through Citadel Mining-linked operations, generating $344 million in unrealized profit, minus energy costs, Arkham said on Thursday.
The Gulf state retains the majority of its self-mined bitcoin, with onchain records showing the last fund outflow occurred four months ago.
The United Arab Emirates is sitting on approximately $344 million in unrealized profit from royal family-linked bitcoin mining operations, excluding energy costs, according to data from Arkham.
The Gulf nation currently holds a total of $453.6 million in bitcoin
BTC-1.22%
mined through state-linked infrastructure, maintaining a consistent production rate of 4.2 BTC per day over the previous seven days, the data show
UAE’s mining push traces back to 2022, when Citadel Mining, an entity tied to Abu Dhabi’s royal family, established large-scale operations on Al Reem Island. In 2023, Marathon Digital Holdings and Abu Dhabi-based Zero Two announced a joint venture to develop 250 megawatts of immersion-cooled mining capacity in the UAE, marking one of the region’s largest disclosed industrial deployments.
Arkham's latest data revises downward the $700 million in mined bitcoin it attributed to the UAE in August 2025, when the firm first identified the country's wallets on its platform and bitcoin prices were trading at higher levels. At that time, Arkham reported the UAE had mined approximately 9,300 BTC and continued holding about 6,300 BTC, ranking it fourth among government entities with verified onchain holdings.
The current data shows the UAE Royal Group holds about 6,782 BTC, representing 0.03% of bitcoin's total supply.
Beyond the Gulf: Other sovereign miners and holders
The UAE is not the only sovereign entity mining bitcoin. Bhutan's Royal Government, through its investment arm Druk Holding & Investments, began mining in 2019 using the country's hydroelectric resources. At its peak, Bhutan accumulated over $1 billion in bitcoin, with Arkham first identifying its holdings in September 2024 at just over 13,000 BTC.
Unlike the UAE, which Arkham reports has not moved funds in four months, Bhutan has been systematically reducing its position. Since the beginning of 2026, Bhutan has sold bitcoin for three consecutive weeks, totaling approximately $29 million, with the most recent sale occurring in February. Over the past five months, Bhutan has sold more than $100 million in bitcoin, reducing its holdings by more than half from peak levels. The government currently holds 5,600 BTC valued at $375 million, according to Arkham data.
Several other governments hold significant bitcoin portfolios, though unlike the UAE and Bhutan, their accumulations derive primarily from asset seizures. According to Arkham, the U.S. government ranks first among sovereign holders with 328,000 BTC valued at $22 billion, representing 1.64% of the total supply.
These holdings were recovered by the FBI from the Bitfinex hack, seizures from the Silk Road marketplace, and assets taken from Silk Road hacker James Zhong. The U.S. recently acquired an additional 127,000 BTC from the LuBian Hacker address, per Arkham.
The UK government ranks second with 61,000 BTC valued at $4 billion, or 0.3% of total supply. The UK Metropolitan Police seized part of this bitcoin stash from Jian Wen and Zhimin Qian in 2018, gaining access to the funds in July 2021.
Other governments have accumulated bitcoin through different channels. Ukraine has received $22.8 million in bitcoin donations since the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, while Germany seized 50,000 BTC in January 2024 from a movie piracy site and fully sold the holdings in July 2024. Arkham’s platform tracks these and other sovereign wallets, though it notes that additional government holdings may remain unidentified.

XRP Long-Term Scenarios — Success, Stability, or Decline?
After exploring XRP’s strengths, adoption path, and risks, the final step is to look at the long-term possibilities.
No asset has only one future. Instead, multiple scenarios can unfold depending on regulation, adoption, and global financial trends.
Let’s break them down realistically.
---
🚀 Scenario 1: XRP Becomes Core Payment Infrastructure (Bullish Case)
In the most optimistic outcome, XRP secures a strong role in global finance.
This would likely require:
Regulatory clarity across major economies
Expansion of liquidity corridors using solutions from Ripple
Banks adopting blockchain settlement rails
Growth in tokenized assets requiring fast settlement layers
If this happens, XRP could transition from a speculative asset into financial infrastructure.
Historically, assets tied to infrastructure tend to gain long-term stability and institutional demand.
---
📈 Scenario 2: XRP Remains Relevant but Not Dominant (Neutral Case)
In a more moderate outcome, XRP succeeds in some regions and industries but doesn’t become the universal settlement layer.
Here, the future might look like:
XRP used in select payment corridors
Competing networks sharing the market
Periodic growth cycles tied to adoption news
Continued role as a liquidity bridge, but not exclusive
In this scenario, XRP remains important — but as one player among many.
This is actually the most common outcome in technology markets.
---
📉 Scenario 3: Adoption Slows and Narrative Weakens (Bearish Case)
In the pessimistic scenario, XRP struggles to secure long-term institutional demand.
This could happen if:
Regulatory pressure increases
Banks prefer private blockchain solutions
Stablecoins dominate cross-border payments
Competing networks capture liquidity corridors
If adoption stalls, XRP could remain mostly a trader-driven asset rather than an infrastructure layer.
Even then, it might survive — but without the strong growth narrative.
---
🧠 What Determines Which Scenario Wins?
Three variables will likely decide XRP’s future:
1️⃣ Regulation
Legal clarity unlocks institutional capital.
2️⃣ Liquidity Corridors
Real usage matters more than announcements.
3️⃣ Global Financial Trends
Tokenization, CBDCs, and cross-border digital rails will shape demand.
Crypto markets reward projects that integrate into the real economy, not just the digital one.
---
Final Perspective
XRP’s journey shows that crypto is no longer just about technology or price speculation.
It’s about how digital assets fit into the future financial system.
Success won’t come from hype alone.
It will come from usage, liquidity, and trust.
And whichever scenario unfolds, XRP has already secured its place as one of the most influential experiments in blockchain-based payments.
