Financial industry regulators have granted Prometheum Ember Capital the ability to provide clearing and settlement services that have the potential to shake up the cryptocurrency industry.

Prometheum, a little-known digital asset company, announced Thursday that it has received approval from FINRA for the first time to allow clearing and settlement services for digital asset securities through a special purpose broker-dealer license it acquired from the stock exchange last year. and Exchange Commission.

The move will strengthen Prometheum’s storage capabilities and make it “the only viable federally compliant access point for cryptocurrency trading and storage in the United States,” the company said.

“We believe transitioning cryptocurrencies to a federally regulated ecosystem is an important step forward for the industry, as the American public still needs a responsible way to participate in the digital asset space,” said Co-CEO Aaron Kaplan.

Asked Thursday what message Kaplan had for people who say it’s impossible to register with the SEC, he said it helps to work with the law instead of against it.

“Instead of changing the law, by keeping our heads down and working within the regulations and trying to work within the law, we first got approval for a special purpose broker-dealer, and now if we register properly under the securities laws, we can be successful, approval to liquidate and resolve.”
