호주 증권투자위원회, 이더리움 금융 상품 분류 검토 중

호주 증권투자위원회(Australian Securities and Investments Commission, ASIC)가 이더리움 머지 이후 암호화폐 규제 팀 규모를 확대했다고 발표했다.

ASIC은 이더리움을 금융 상품으로 분류할지에 대해 검토하고 있습니다.

Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) increased the size of its crypto team, The Guardian reports, after the popular blockchain shifted from a proof-of-work (PoW) to a proof-of-stake (PoS) system.
The change has prompted U.S. Security and Exchange Commission Chairman Gary Gensler to state that PoS-based tokens could be classified as securities.
Ethereum is under renewed scrutiny following last week’s merge event, as the ASIC looks set to decide on whether the market's second-largest cryptocurrency is subject to its oversight.
