AMC CEO Praises SEC's New Tokenization Rules, Calls for Robinhood Overseas Markets to Follow Same Standards

BlockBeats news, September 18: AMC Entertainment CEO Adam Aron posted on the X platform, expressing appreciation for U.S. SEC Chairman Paul Atkins' announcement of policies related to tokenized stocks, and highlighted three principles, including that investor protection must not be absent, synthetic assets must not be used, and stock issuers have the right to object to their securities being traded on tokenized securities trading venues.

Aron stated that under the framework published by the U.S. SEC, eligible stock tokens should have full voting rights and dividend rights, and listed companies should also have the right to prevent their securities from being traded in tokenized form. He also called out to Robinhood co-founder Vlad Tenev, urging Robinhood to similarly adhere to the above standards in its overseas stock token business, especially regarding investor protection, synthetic assets, and issuer objection rights.
