The New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) published “green list” of digital assets with which licensed companies can operate without additional permissions.
Assets are divided into two categories: approved for custody and approved for listing.
The regulator classified the following as approved for custody: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Ripple, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum Classic, Binance USD, Gemini Dollar, Pax Gold and Paxos Standard.
The second category includes the same assets, except for Ethereum Classic and Ripple.
Any licensed organization may use coins from the green list for “approved purposes,” but must inform the NYDFS in advance, the regulator stressed.
In June, the NYDFS decided to ease licensing rules for crypto companies.
