SEC corporation-finance staff said a buyback announcement for a non-security token on a functional network is outside the Howey test’s essential-managerial-efforts promise, while warning that younger projects may invite investment-contract scrutiny by marketing buybacks as returns.

Fed stablecoin proposal could trigger a 48-hour liquidation run

The Federal Reserve’s proposed rules would give supervised payment stablecoin issuers 24 hours to report a reserve shortfall and submit a recovery plan. If the gap remains, they must begin liquidating reserves and redeeming tokens by 5 p.m. the next business day—often within 48 hours. The proposal also allows minting during the rescue window, to avoid signaling distress on public blockchains.

    The Federal Reserve’s proposed framework would tie a payment stablecoin issuer’s baseline operational-risk capital charge directly to coins outstanding. A hypothetical supervised issuer with $1 billion in circulation and no non-reserve revenue would face a $20 million baseline charge, while also needing reserves equal to the coins’ par value. The OCC has proposed a different, business-specific approach.

Shipping disruption has also delayed supplies, raised transport costs and pushed imported-goods prices up by 25 to 30 percent.
