According to Foresight News, Paxos co-founder and CEO Chad Cascarilla announced at the Solana Breakpoint conference that Paxos has applied to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to become a clearing agency. This move would enable Paxos to directly custody and issue stocks and bonds on-chain, allowing users to hold actual underlying assets rather than derivatives. Cascarilla emphasized that this development is crucial for the large-scale transition of traditional financial assets onto blockchain. Cascarilla outlined Paxos's goal to facilitate the integration of traditional assets into the blockchain environment. The company plans to expand its presence in the stablecoin and asset tokenization sectors, including the growth of USDG and gold tokenization products. He expressed the belief that public blockchains will become a unified global platform for asset trading, significantly enhancing market accessibility and liquidity.

According to Cointelegraph, Polish lawmakers have reignited the debate over cryptocurrency regulation by reintroducing a comprehensive crypto bill, following its rejection by President Karol Nawrocki. This move has heightened tensions between Nawrocki and Prime Minister Donald Tusk. The bill, known as Bill 2050, was presented by Polska2050, a member of the ruling coalition in Poland's Sejm, just days after Nawrocki vetoed a similar proposal. Despite claims from supporters like Adam Gomoła that the new bill is an "improved" version of the vetoed Bill 1424, government spokesman Adam Szłapka stated that "not even a comma" had been altered. The controversy surrounding Poland's crypto legislation unfolds as the European Union's Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA) is being implemented across member states, with a compliance deadline set for July 2026. Critics argue that Bill 2050 is essentially a replica of the original Bill 1424, aiming to establish the Polish Financial Supervision Authority as the primary regulator for the country's crypto asset market. Polish politician Tomasz Mentzen has criticized the previous bill as "118 pages of overregulation," especially when compared to shorter versions in other EU countries like Hungary and Romania. Mentzen expressed his disapproval on social media, mocking Tusk's assertion that the president's veto was linked to alleged "Russian mafia" involvement, and sarcastically remarked that "the bill is perfect, and anyone who thinks otherwise is funded by Putin." Government spokesman Szłapka suggested that President Nawrocki might not veto the bill this time, following a classified security briefing in parliament that reportedly provided him with comprehensive insights into the national security implications. The debate over Poland's crypto bill is significant as it sets a precedent for the implementation of the EU-wide MiCA regulation, which proposes local financial regulators take charge of market supervision. This issue is particularly relevant amid calls from some EU member states for more centralized oversight under the Paris-based European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA). In October, the Bank of France advocated for granting ESMA direct supervisory powers, warning that fragmented oversight could jeopardize the EU's financial sovereignty. However, some member states, including Malta, have resisted centralized oversight, arguing that it could introduce additional layers of supervision that might hinder market innovation. Polish economist Krzysztof Piech, a vocal critic of Poland's proposed crypto bill, has questioned the necessity of local legislation, noting that MiCA protections will be in place by 2026. While local reports indicate that Nawrocki may not veto the bill this time, there is speculation that his office has been presented with an "alternative" draft aimed at fostering more favorable market conditions. This alternative proposal reportedly seeks to align with the EU-wide MiCA framework and remove direct oversight from the local regulator.
