PAID Enters U.S. Licensing Discovery Amid Regulatory Shift, Accredited Investors Already Live

PAID has officially entered licensing discovery across multiple jurisdictions, including the United States, marking the next step toward full regulatory integration. This follows a series of follow-up conversations with the SEC Crypto Task Force, continuing the dialogue that began in April 2025, where Kyle Chassé joined regulators to discuss how compliant, on-chain platforms can power global capital formation.

With regulation advancing, PAID stands among the few Web3 platforms already aligned with the evolving U.S. framework. Its trajectory reflects the broader shift from speculative launches toward structured, compliant participation in real-world innovation.

This evolution builds on the vision Chassé shared several months ago on Nasdaq TradeTalks: "Does the U.S. Have the Potential to Become the Crypto Capital of the World?":

"I was just on a call with the White House," he said. "One of the reasons I moved back to America was to bring PAID back and make early-stage investment opportunities accessible to Americans."

At the time, he emphasized how restrictive the U.S. environment had been for innovators and how critical it was to reverse that trend by introducing clear frameworks for compliant, early-stage participation.

Three months later, those discussions have turned into action. PAID has now begun license discovery and regulatory mapping, exploring structures that will extend its investor base beyond accredited participation and open compliant pathways for retail access across the U.S., EU, and UK.

Today, U.S. accredited investors are already investing on PAID's platform across equity and hybrid rounds, placing PAID among the first global capital-formation platforms with active participation from the U.S.

A Turning Point for U.S. Policy
As PAID advances its U.S. licensing path, Kyle Chassé highlighted a major shift in regulatory tone during his most recent appearance on Nasdaq TradeTalks: "The Evolving Digital Asset Ecosystem, Regulatory Structure, and a New Wave of Infrastructure":

"We've been battling rules and regulations for years, public enemy number one was always the SEC," Chassé said. "But now we have a wildly different perspective, very pro-innovation, saying we need to adapt."

This transformation reflects a growing understanding among policymakers that blockchain infrastructure and on-chain capital markets are now vital to U.S. competitiveness and that the path forward lies in enabling innovation through compliance, not restricting it.

Regulatory Momentum Builds
Two weeks ago, Senate Democrats reaffirmed bipartisan support for the Crypto Market Structure Bill, following a new series of meetings with industry leaders including Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong and Chainlink CEO Sergey Nazarov.

"It's clear there's a sufficient level of Democratic support," Nazarov said. "More than ten lawmakers attended, all dedicated to pushing the bill through Congress."

The legislation, co-led by Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, aims to create the first federal framework for digital-asset issuance and trading. It mirrors PAID's own roadmap toward building compliant rails for tokenized and equity-based fundraising.

"Every American who buys an ETH ETF is now, without realizing it, helping secure the Ethereum network," Chassé added during the same Nasdaq TradeTalks appearance. "It's a sign that America is quietly coming on-chain, step by step."

Macro Tailwinds: Liquidity Returns
The Federal Reserve's 0.25% rate cut last week marks the first easing in over a year, with another expected in December. Historically, such shifts have triggered renewed inflows into risk assets: venture rounds, private equity, and digital markets alike.

With liquidity returning and regulatory clarity improving, analysts anticipate a drop in Bitcoin dominance over coming weeks and expect to see a continued inflow of capital to crypto.

What Comes Next
A new lineup of equity and hybrid rounds will open to global accredited investors in November 2025, including access for qualified U.S. participants.

As licensing efforts expand, PAID is positioning itself as the bridge between regulated capital and frontier innovation, where compliance meets opportunity and the next wave of private-market growth begins.
