A token safe harbor is a proposed regulatory framework that would provide temporary relief from certain securities laws for developers of decentralized networks. It would allow projects to develop and decentralize their networks without immediately facing the full burden of securities registration, provided they meet specific conditions. The aim is to foster innovation in the digital asset space by offering a clearer path for projects to launch and grow. It seeks to balance investor protection with technological advancement.
