Statement On Supplemental Information And Reopening Of Comment Period For Amendments To Exchange Act Rule 3b-16 Regarding The Definition Of “Exchange”, SEC Commissioner Mark T. Uyeda, April 14, 2023

Date 14/04/2023

Thank you, Chair Gensler. Today’s recommendation from the staff of the Division of Trading and Markets is to reopen the comment period for proposed amendments to Rule 3b-16 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) regarding the definition of “exchange” and provide supplemental information relating to trading systems for crypto assets. As I was not a member of the Commission when the proposal was issued, this is my first opportunity to vote on the topic.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Stagnation, centralization, expatriation, and extinction are the watchwords of this release.
