The Securities and Exchange Commission is quite interested in knowing what is going on within the area of smart contract-centered crypto assets, Victor Fang said.
The SEC of the United States of America has allegedly struck a $125k agreement with blockchain research startup AnChain.AI to assist in regulating and monitoring the decentralized financial market.
As per a Forbes article published on Friday, the AnChain.AI business spokesman verified the deal with the U.S.A agency, stating that the blockchain startup and Securities and Exchange Commission had the choice of signing upward of 5 different one-year agreements for $125k each, for a combined amount of $625k. According to reports, the first deal started this May.
According to the Chief Executive Officer and Co-creator of AnChain.AI, Fang, the Securities and Exchange Commission is particularly interested in knowing what is going on in the realm of smart contract-centered digital resources. The firm is supplying the SEC with technologies for analyzing and tracing smart contracts.
The alleged deal between the blockchain research company and the federal agency comes after the federal agency’s chairperson, Gensler, urged DeFi enterprises to file with the federal agency, arguing that they are decentralized in certain ways but severely centralized in others.
