Title: Coins/tokens prohibited from being offered to US investors Post by: irukandji on June 02, 2017, 02:42:48 AM Some coins/tokens are not allowed to be offered to US investors. For example Polybius.
What are some previous coins that were not allowed to be bought by/offered to US investors? Are they subsequently able to trade on US exchanges like Poloniex, Bittrex or Kraken?

This leaves tokens with no premine such as Bitcoin, Litecoin, Monero etc. Ripple is the only Centralized Virtual Currency that to my knowledge has made peace with FinCEN. |
