According to an official announcement, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has proposed amendments to rules and forms related to registered offerings, aiming to enhance the efficiency and flexibility of public fundraising for listed companies while reducing costs and simplifying the disclosure framework for such companies. Under the proposal, more listed companies would be eligible for shelf offerings; more companies would qualify for registration and communication accommodations previously available only to “well-known seasoned issuers”; broker-dealers would be permitted to provide research report coverage for a broader range of listed companies; and state-level registration and qualification requirements under state securities laws for multi-state registered offerings would be preempted at the federal level. Additionally, the proposal seeks to raise the threshold for “large accelerated filers” from $700 million to $2 billion in public float, and companies would remain excluded from this category for at least 60 months following their IPO, regardless of subsequent changes in public float. The public comment period for both proposals will last 60 days following publication in the Federal Register.
According to Cointelegraph, a survey conducted by POLITICO and Public First among 2,035 U.S. adults found that only 4% of respondents said they would consider candidates’ cryptocurrency policy positions when deciding whom to vote for. The survey also revealed that only 18% of respondents ranked establishing regulatory frameworks for cryptocurrency markets as a congressional priority; 27% supported government efforts to promote cryptocurrency as a mainstream financial asset, while 31% opposed it. Additionally, over half of respondents stated they would not consider trading cryptocurrency, and 45% viewed investing in cryptocurrency as a risk not worth taking.
Robinhood has filed for the public offering of its second venture capital fund, RVII, approximately two months after the listing of its first fund, RVI. Robinhood stated that RVII’s fundraising target has not yet been determined; RVI previously targeted $1 billion but raised less than that amount. Public records indicate that RVI holds stakes in 10 private companies, including OpenAI, Stripe, Databricks, and Revolut. Robinhood noted that both funds enable retail investors to purchase publicly traded shares linked to portfolios of private startups through standard brokerage accounts.
According to CoinDesk, SpaceX is expected to go public in June and could surpass Saudi Aramco’s $29 billion IPO in 2019 to become the largest IPO in history. Meanwhile, OpenAI and Anthropic are also planning to go public in the second half of this year. Collectively, these three companies are projected to raise over $240 billion—potentially marking a pivotal turning point for liquidity in the crypto market. Market analysts believe these mega-IPOs could significantly drain liquidity from risk assets, with the crypto market sitting in the same funding pool. As mainstream crypto assets such as Bitcoin and Ethereum have closely tracked the Nasdaq and U.S. equity risk sentiment in recent years, a large-scale shift of capital toward subscribing to tech giants’ IPOs may weaken buying support for BTC, ETH, and altcoins.
