At first glance, this kinda seems crazy to me. I need to better understand it, but it really seems like the SEC is trying to push trading outside of regulated entities entirely. From a market manipulation perspective this seems like an enforcement nightmare.
🚨 TODAY: The SEC issued an order granting temporary, conditional exemptive relief to Tokenized Securities Venues from the definition of “exchange” in the Exchange Act to trade tokenized NMS stock using innovative permissioned automated market makers and liquidity pools.

It's amazing this guy doesn't understand issuers don't want synthetic tokens. He cannot grasp that markets are supposed to serve a purpose for capital formation and price discovery. He sees them as casinos - the more you trade, the more money he gets paid by his actual customers.

Here’s the problem, the foundations of that trust are under attack by some of the proposals being put forward by the @SECGov … Order Protection under Rule 611 is on the chopping block, meaning retail investors lose and wholesalers win.

There's less than a week to get your comment letter in on the SEC's proposal to eliminate rule 611. There's no need to be cynical about whether it will help or not - even if it doesn't change the SEC's mind, it establishes an important record.

The SEC has proposed to rescind Rule 611 - the Order Protection Rule. This will remove the last guardrail that individual investors have to protect the price they get when they trade. If this succeeds, you'll have to trust internalizers to give you the best price, and FINRA to enforce best execution - something they've proven incapable of doing. If you're interested, I wrote a post: teddit.net/r/UrvinFinance/co…

Last month the SEC proposed to remove Rule 611 - the order protection rule. Instead of replacing it w/something better - a rigorous best ex standard - they simply want to get rid of it. This is a terrible idea & will increase market manipulation.

We're running a comment letter campaign on this critical mkt structure issue. You might be cynical & think your voice doesn't matter. That's certainly what they want you to think. But it does. Regardless of whether the SEC listens, or we take other action, we need your support.

Love this note from Linus on AI coding. As a software developer, I can't remember a more useful and impressive tool.

I see a lot of people who have given up fighting for market fairness. I understand the frustration and disillusionment. I've been doing this for a long time, and generally things go in the wrong direction because the regulators are captured and the corporatists run the government.

This is a big deal. @WeTheInvestors_ ran a campaign on this to show that Citadel did not speak for retail investors, and the court agreed. So don't listen to the people who don't want you to fight, or who think commenting is a waste of time. They're probably funded by Citadel.

Here's the full decision if you want to take a look. What we do is important, and we're still in this fight, as we have been for more than a decade now.
