Upon framework completion, the regulator will open licensing applications for seven specific service categories, including virtual asset exchanges, tokenization, ETFs, mining, and investment advisory. This controlled testing environment aims to foster responsible innovation while safeguarding investor protection, market integrity, and anti-money laundering compliance ahead of full-scale licensing.
