OpenSea to sec: ‘We are not exchanges’
This week OpenSea asked the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to officially declare that NFTs are not “exchanges or brokers” according to the American securities legislation.
In a letter to SEC commissioner Hester Peirce, OpenSea argued that NFTS usually only has one seller per token – so platforms such as those of them do not function as traditional fairs or brokers.
They emphasized that all NFT transactions in chains take place through smart contracts, where OpenSea simply acts as a discovery instrument-not intermediary, custodian or advisor.
To prevent future confusion, OpenSea asks the SEC to issue clear guidelines, such as a bulletin or interpretative release, to confirm that NFT marketplaces are not covered by exchange rules.
This Push follows the Brush of OpenSea with a well report last year – although the SEC dropped the investigation at the beginning of 2025 after President Donald Trump told the agency to pause crypto enforcement.
