FAQs

How does Toku help prevent insider trading for token holders?

‍Toku ensures that token holders with material non-public information (MNPI)—such as founders, executives, core team members, and advisors—can sell their tokens legally and without risk of insider trading violations.

We do this by setting up structured, pre-approved trading plans (similar to SEC 10b5-1 plans for equities) that remove any discretionary decision-making from the selling process. Instead of making ad hoc decisions on when to sell, token holders set up a pre-determined, automated selling schedule when they are not in possession of MNPI. Once the plan is in place, sales happen automatically according to the preset schedule, ensuring they are compliant with regulations.

What are the benefits of putting a trading plan in place?

A structured trading plan is essential for token holders navigating regulatory scrutiny, insider trading risks, and market stability concerns. Without a pre-approved plan, insiders risk legal exposure, market disruptions, and reputational damage when selling tokens.

By eliminating discretionary decision-making, structured plans ensure token sales follow a pre-set, rules-based schedule, mitigating insider trading risks and aligning with SEC and CFTC compliance standards. They also enhance market confidence, by preventing unstructured sales that flood liquidity, drive down token prices, and create volatility. A structured plan mitigates this risk by ensuring orderly, strategic execution, particularly through OTC desks, minimizing price impact and liquidity disruptions.

Exchanges are increasingly requiring trading plans for insiders as a prerequisite for listing to ensure compliance and protect market integrity. As regulatory clarity and enforcement continues to evolve, having a structured plan in place future-proofs your compliance posture, aligns it with institutional best practices, and strengthens your project's credibility with exchanges and regulators.

Does traditional SEC 10b5-1 plans apply to tokens?

Traditional SEC Rule 10b5-1 plans apply specifically to publicly traded equities and other securities regulated under U.S. securities laws. Since tokens aren't universally classified as securities, they don’t automatically fall under the 10b5-1 framework or receive its legal protections.

However, insider trading laws still apply, meaning founders, executives, and advisors with material non-public information (MNPI) must take steps to ensure their token sales are compliant. Toku’s 10b5-1-like plans help mitigate insider trading risks by following key principles of traditional 10b5-1 plans, including pre-approved, non-discretionary trading schedules and OTC desk integrations to minimize market impact.

We recommend that token holders consult with legal counsel to ensure their trading plans align with the appropriate regulatory requirements for their jurisdiction and individual circumstances.

How does Toku facilitate compliant liquidity access for token holders with a trading plan?

Toku provides direct integrations with multiple top-tier OTC trading desks, allowing token holders to access liquidity in a structured and compliant manner. Toku is not a broker and does not execute transactions. Instead, it enables token holders to engage with OTC desks while ensuring sales follow pre-approved structured trading plans that align with regulatory requirements and project's insider trading policies.
