Analyzed Economic Effects
5 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 3 costs, 1 mixed.
New data feeds added with set monthly fees
NYSE Arca added new Third Party Data Feeds that Users can subscribe to and listed monthly recurring fees: Blue Ocean ATS (BOATS) $750/month; Cboe CFE Futures $1,500/month; Long Term Stock Exchange $2,600/month; MEMX Equities $2,000/month; MEMX Options $2,000/month; Small Exchange $1,000/month. If you subscribe, these fees will appear on your invoice.
Multiple data‑feed fee changes and combinations
The Exchange changed monthly recurring connectivity fees for a number of existing Third Party Data Feeds and combined certain feeds: Cboe MATCHNow is combined into Cboe Canada (new combined fee $2,000/month); Nasdaq Stock Market combined with Nasdaq ISE (combined fee $3,000/month); TMX Group combined with Montreal Exchange (combined fee $2,500/month). The filing notes fee adjustments for 18 feeds in total.
More execution systems available
If you use NYSE Arca colocation services, the Exchange added new third‑party execution systems you can connect to: Blue Ocean ATS (BOATS), Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (CIBC), Long Term Stock Exchange, MEMX, Pragma, and Small Exchange. The Exchange says it will not change the monthly recurring fee structure for access to each Third Party System and you only pay for the specific systems and bandwidth you choose.
Redistribution (pass‑through) fees clarified
The Exchange added the phrase "and their partners" to clarify that third‑party data providers and their connectivity partners may charge redistribution fees; when the Exchange receives such a redistribution fee it will pass the charge through to the User unchanged and label it as a pass‑through on the invoice. The filing specifically expects the BOATS connectivity partner to charge a redistribution fee that will be passed to Users.
Fee schedule effective immediately — check now
The proposed rule change was filed on June 27, 2025 and became effective immediately under the filing rules; the Commission published notice July 14, 2025.

2026-17183, Regulation Crypto Assets
The Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission") is proposing new rules to create a tailored offering regime for certain investment contracts involving crypto assets. The proposed offering regime is intended to facilitate capital formation and accommodate innovation within the crypto asset markets while, at the same time, ensuring that investors are adequately protected and provided with the information they need to make informed investment decisions. The proposed rules would be set forth in a new regulation titled "Regulation Crypto Assets" and would include two exemptions from the registration requirements of section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933. The first exemption would permit offerings of up to $5 million during a four-year period. The second exemption would permit offerings of up to $75 million during each 12-month period. Under both exemptions, issuers would be required to make certain principles-based narrative disclosures available to their investors. In addition, issuers under the second exemption would be required to provide financial statements and would be subject to ongoing reporting requirements. Issuers that rely on these exemptions would remain subject to the antifraud and antimanipulation provisions of the Federal securities laws. The proposed rules also would include a conditional safe harbor from the term "investment contract" in the definitions of "security" in the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. If the conditions of that proposed safe harbor are satisfied, then a crypto asset would be deemed not to be subject to an investment contract for purposes of those definitions of "security."
