# The SEC wants to let newly public companies raise cash instantly in its biggest rule change in decades

-   The Securities and Exchange Commission has proposed the most sweeping overhaul of IPO and public-company rules in more than 20 years to lower compliance costs and revive U.S. public listings.
-   The plan would let newly public companies use shelf registrations immediately, scrap the $75 million float requirement, and extend streamlined regulatory accommodations to roughly 75% of listed firms.
-   The proposal, which could especially benefit mid-sized and volatile crypto businesses, would ease audit and reporting burdens by raising the “large accelerated filer” threshold to $2 billion and requiring companies to exceed it for two consecutive years, and is open for public comment for 60 days.
