Malaysian regulator proposes easing crypto asset listing process
Malaysia’s securities regulator is seeking public feedback on a proposal to allow certain cryptocurrencies to be listed on exchanges without prior approval.
The Securities Commission Malaysia (SC) is seeking public feedback on a proposal that would allow cryptocurrency exchanges to list certain digital assets without first obtaining explicit approval from the regulator.
According to a Monday announcement, the regulator is considering liberalizing the framework for listing some digital assets on exchanges. Under the proposed rules, digital assets meeting specific criteria could be listed without explicit approval.
“This aims to accelerate time-to-market, increase [crypto exchange] operator accountability and widen product offerings,” the announcement said.
