SEC Approves Snooze-Fest Fee Tweaks for 24X Exchange Traders
Published Date: 11/24/2025
Notice
Summary
24X National Exchange is changing the fees and rebates for its members, especially for stocks priced under $1.00. Starting soon, members will pay less when they take liquidity and get adjusted rebates when they add liquidity. These updates aim to make trading fairer and more cost-effective for everyone involved.
Analyzed Economic Effects
3 provisions identified: 3 benefits, 0 costs, 0 mixed.
No net capture now; pricing may change later
For stocks under $1.00, 24X will pay the same rebate (0.15%) as the fee it charges for removing liquidity (0.15%), so the Exchange will have no net capture on those transactions while this pricing is in effect. The Exchange says it may modify its pricing later after it gains participation.
Lower fee when you take liquidity
If you trade stocks priced below $1.00 on 24X and you remove liquidity, the fee for that execution falls from 0.28% of total dollar value to 0.15% of total dollar value. This change is effective October 14, 2025.
Higher rebate when you add displayed liquidity
If you add displayed liquidity in stocks priced below $1.00 on 24X, the rebate for that execution increases from 0.075% of total dollar value to 0.15% of total dollar value. This change is effective October 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."
