PANews reported on January 15th that Lighter announced on its X platform that it will launch a LIT token staking feature. The initial staking benefit includes: for every 1 LIT staked, users will immediately receive 10 USDC in Lighter LLP. There will be a two-week grace period (until January 28th) during which existing LLP holders can retain their funds. After the grace period ends, staked LIT will be required to remain in LLP.

The platform will also adjust premium rates for market makers and high-frequency trading firms, resulting in an overall increase in rates. However, staking LIT will offer a fee discount, with the lowest fee tier remaining around its current level. Retail trading will continue to be free. Staking LIT will generate returns, with the specific annualized rate to be announced later. Initial returns will come from staking rights granted to premium users. Furthermore, staking 100 LIT will enjoy zero withdrawal and transfer fees. The staking feature will be available to mobile users in the coming days.

US SEC approves universal listing standards to expedite cryptocurrency ETF approvals

US SEC approves universal listing standards to expedite cryptocurrency ETF approvals

PANews reported on September 18th that, according to Cointelegraph, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has approved a set of listing standards for commodity-based trust units, opening the door to digital asset listings without requiring individual approval. The decision, detailed in SEC filings from Nasdaq, NYSE Arca, and Cboe BZX on Wednesday, will streamline the process under Rule 6c-11, significantly reducing the approval process, which previously took several months. SEC Chairman Paul Atkins stated that this move ensures that the U.S. capital market is the best place for cutting-edge innovation in digital assets, streamlining processes, lowering barriers to entry, maximizing investor choice, and promoting innovation. The US SEC stated that to be eligible for listing, a cryptocurrency spot ETF must hold a commodity that is either traded on a market that belongs to a cross-market monitoring organization and has monitoring authority, or is the subject of a futures contract that has been listed on a designated contract market for at least six months and has a monitoring sharing agreement; in addition, if the cryptocurrency has been tracked by an ETF listed on a national securities exchange with an investment account of at least 40%, then the cryptocurrency spot ETF may also be eligible for listing; when an exchange seeks to list and trade cryptocurrency trading products that do not meet the approved general listing standards, it must submit a rule application to the US SEC.
