ANPRM

Definition

An ANPRM is a formal document from a regulatory agency seeking public input on potential new rules. This initial step allows stakeholders, including those in the digital asset space, to provide comments before a formal rule proposal is drafted. Regulators use ANPRMs to gather comprehensive data and perspectives on complex issues, often preceding significant policy shifts concerning cryptocurrencies or blockchain technology. This mechanism ensures broad participation in the regulatory formation process.
