I would like to know how they comply with new regulations. Depends on what they're offering. If it's a true utility token and passes the Howey Test, then it already complies- it's when they're a security they don't and need to get SEC licensing. Ours is based in the UK, but we've got our team split between the US & UK (I'm currently in Manhattan, my wife is American, I've split my time between London & NYC for the last 5 years)- and because of that we got legal advice and structured our Pre-Sale, Crowdsale and token economics to not require SEC licensing- it's not hard, just requires a bit of forethought. Coinbase did some good work publishing an overview of securities framework here (https://www.coinbase.com/legal/securities-law-framework.pdf).

I would like to know how they comply with new regulations. The framework linked above is a very good starting point. I strongly suggest you consult with qualified legal advisors with experience in securities law. What you think passes Howey may not be the same as an expert opinion. Best of luck with your project!

Yeah- exactly. You're opinion of the Howey Test isn't what the SEC uses :) It isn't expensive to get a lawyer to do the initial check. It is expensive to get a lawyer to get your ass out of trouble if you do breach the regulations. |
