ABOUT

Last week, SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce proposed Rule 195 to give token projects a 3 year safe harbor. This proposed period would allow them to distribute tokens without fear of violating securities law so long as they achieve certain standards of decentralization in that time.

The cost of regulatory clarity in the US, including projects leaving US shores
Historic approaches to “compliant” token sales and what problems they still leave
