Crypto Innovation Council CCI calls on SEC to clarify staking rules

The Crypto Industry Alliance called on the U.S. SEC to provide clear, principled guidance on staking activities. In an open letter, the Cryptocurrency Innovation Council (CCI) asked the SEC to clarify that staking is not an investment activity and suggested consistency with the SEC's previous position on mining, stablecoins and meme coins. The alliance, which is backed by companies such as Consensys, Kraken, Ava Labs and Galaxy, emphasizes that staking is a technical mechanism used to protect blockchain networks, not an investment solution. During the staking process, users participate in validating transactions and protecting the network by locking tokens, thereby earning rewards. The alliance urged the SEC to issue a statement clarifying that staking and related services are not subject to securities regulation, and to propose industry standards for staking services to ensure transparency and user control. The letter from the Crypto Innovation Council also proposed a framework for staking service providers, including user disclosure, transparency in reward distribution, and user control over staked assets.
