THE SECURITIES and Exchange Commission (SEC) said the 90-day integration period granted to BlockShoals Technologies, Inc. under its Strategic Sandbox participation is proscribed to technical preparations and doesn’t mark the beginning of public trading activities.<\/p>\n
In a press release on Thursday, the SEC said the combination phase forms a part of BlockShoals\u2019 approved testing plan under the regulatory sandbox framework, which lets the corporate test crypto-asset products and trading activities in a controlled environment.<\/p>\n
The company regulator said BlockShoals must connect its systems with a virtual asset service provider licensed by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas as a part of the sandbox requirements.<\/p>\n
The 90-day period is meant solely for establishing technical infrastructure and system connectivity between BlockShoals and its local partner it said.<\/p>\n
The work includes developing fiat rails that might enable the conversion of Philippine pesos into cryptocurrencies and vice versa through on-ramping and off-ramping mechanisms.<\/p>\n
The SEC said any access to systems in the course of the period is restricted to activities essential for technical integration and sandbox testing.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis shouldn’t be construed because the commencement of public onboarding, public trading operations, or broader market reopening,\u201d the commission said.<\/p>\n
The clarification comes amid interest in BlockShoals\u2019 participation within the Strategic Sandbox, a regulatory framework that permits corporations to check progressive financial services under SEC supervision.<\/p>\n
The SEC also urged the general public to depend on official announcements regarding developments involving BlockShoals and its sandbox activities. \u2014 Alexandria Grace C. Magno<\/b><\/p>\n
