Local financial and crypto firms have submitted comment letters on U.S. SEC reviews of new ETFs, exposing a split between calls for faster reviews and arguments for a more cautious approach, CoinPost reported. Grayscale, the U.S. asset manager behind a Bitcoin ETF, urged the SEC to introduce a process allowing applicants to submit draft filings privately before making formal ETF applications public. Grayscale argued the procedure could help prevent rivals from copying applications and launching similar products. The firm also proposed requiring the SEC to respond within 45 days of receiving an application. 21Shares, a Swiss ETP manager, submitted a similar view to the SEC. By contrast, Jane Street, a major U.S. market maker, argued for caution against rushing ETF listings, warning that approvals without sufficient review could create problems with product design or liquidity. Charles Schwab, a major U.S. brokerage, also opposed making the entire application process nonpublic.

Connecticut authorities issued a consumer alert on overseas DeFi trading platforms after disclosing a case in which a local resident lost $200,000 to a scam involving an impostor posing as an acquaintance. Connecticut Attorney General William Tong strongly criticized seven unregulated offshore platforms in the U.S., including GMX, dYdX and Hyperliquid, calling them "not innovation, but exploitation." Tong said the platforms offer leverage of up to 250x and trading in synthetic assets rather than actual stocks, leaving users at risk of a full liquidation of principal even on small price moves. Tong added that the decentralized nature of the trading venues makes fund recovery virtually impossible. The attorney general's office also said secondary scams are spreading, with fraudsters demanding upfront fees under the pretense of helping victims recover lost funds. It urged residents to verify whether a service is properly registered and to report suspected fraud promptly.

Vlad Tenev, CEO of Robinhood, said on X that tokenization is a technology that can make high-quality financial assets in U.S. capital markets accessible to anyone around the world. Tenev said traditional financial infrastructure was built around fixed trading hours, closed networks and multiple intermediaries, making it ill-suited to 24-hour trading, programmable assets, composability and self-custody. He added that while the tokenization industry remains at an early stage compared with global financial markets, its advantages are becoming increasingly clear. Tenev also stressed that although it may take time for traditional finance to embrace the shift, the change is worth pursuing.
