DeFi Education Fund Submits Guiding Principles for Token Safe Harbor to SEC Crypto Task Force

Today, April 18th, 2025, DeFi Education Fund (DEF) submitted Guiding Principles for a Token Safe Harbor Framework to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Crypto Task Force. A safe harbor is a legal framework that shields good-faith actors from certain liability or penalties under defined conditions, offering regulatory clarity and peace of mind to market participants.

DEF’s submission is in response to Commissioner Peirce’s February 2025 Request for Information, which seeks input on a potential token safe harbor that would apply to projects intending to decentralize. DEF applauds the Task Force for seeking input from the industry and will continue to work with the Task Force to promote and protect DeFi.
