The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Division of Trading and Markets issued a staff statement providing guidance on whether certain user interfaces used to generate trading instructions for crypto asset securities (Covered User Interface) need to be registered as broker-dealers.The statement noted that under specific conditions, providers of such interfaces may not need to register as broker-dealers under Section 15 of the Securities Exchange Act. These conditions include: not actively soliciting specific trades, not providing investment advice, not controlling or executing trades, generating trading instructions solely based on objective parameters, and fully disclosing the fee structure, potential conflicts of interest, and associated risks to users.The SEC emphasized that such interfaces typically exist in the form of websites, browser plugins, or wallet applications, used to convert trading parameters set by users into on-chain executable instructions, while also providing market data such as prices, paths, and fees.Additionally, the statement clarified that such exemptions do not apply to activities involving trade matching, fund custody, order routing, or providing investment advice. The relevant guidance is a temporary opinion and will automatically expire in 2026 if no further action is taken. The SEC stated that this move aims to provide a clearer regulatory framework for activities related to crypto asset securities and continues to seek market feedback.

The Dubai Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (VARA) released guidelines for the issuance of virtual assets on Thursday, providing clear regulations on the structural design, information disclosure, and distribution methods for stablecoins and real-world asset (RWA) tokens.The guidelines categorize token issuance into three pathways: Category 1 covers fiat-pegged and asset-pegged virtual assets; Category 2 must be distributed through licensed intermediaries, which are responsible for due diligence and ongoing compliance verification; the third category consists of functionally restricted exempt virtual assets.VARA's General Counsel Ruben Bombardi stated that the framework enhances transparency through white papers and independent risk disclosure statements, providing issuers with "greater regulatory certainty" and offering market participants a "single, exclusive reference." These guidelines serve as an interpretative document for the existing "Virtual Asset Issuance Rules Manual" and do not constitute new legislation.

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and the U.S. Department of Justice submitted documents to a federal court on Tuesday, requesting to block Arizona from applying its gambling laws to the prediction market operator Kalshi.Federal regulators argue that contracts linked to sports events, elections, and other real-world events fall under a financial derivative known as "swaps," which should be subject to federal regulation under the Commodity Exchange Act, rather than governed by state gambling laws. Arizona had previously filed criminal charges against Kalshi under state gambling laws, with a hearing scheduled for April 13.The federal appeals court in New Jersey had previously ruled in favor of Kalshi, determining that its sports contracts are presumed legal under federal law in the absence of CFTC intervention, but courts in other jurisdictions have allowed state-level enforcement actions to proceed. If the court ultimately accepts the CFTC's position, prediction markets could operate nationwide under a unified federal framework.

This guideline is based on 18 opinions collected from February to March 2026, with the primary goal of protecting investor assets, proposing a three-tiered security enhancement framework of "self-help (individual businesses), mutual assistance (self-regulatory organizations), and public assistance (regulatory authorities)."The authorities pointed out that current cyber attacks have evolved from simple signature key theft to highly organized methods such as social engineering attacks and supply chain intrusions, making traditional cold wallet management insufficient to ensure security. Subsequently, the Financial Services Agency will implement threat-driven penetration testing (TLPT) on some major businesses and plans to revise operational guidelines to enhance cybersecurity personnel allocation and external audit standards.
