Title: A sub-forum for btc legal dialogue? Post by: mcdett on November 17, 2011, 03:54:45 AM Anyone interested in a sub-forum to this site that has a focus of the legal analysis to laws in various countries? I'd like to have a place to focus and document issues relating to the US SEC and how it relates to individual and institution transactions of btc.
I believe we have a long road in front of us, and having a place to focus the exchange of regulation understanding will make more clear the future. Anyone else think this could be helpful? My $00.02 Title: Re: A sub-forum for btc legal dialogue?

on the train into work every day I've been reading about us sec law. I currently have a basic understanding of the rules regarding creating and marketing a security. my question is how could one sell a security on a market backed by btc. if one owned $100 usd of btc given a market index they would be able to redeem their security for which ever currency they'd like to trade with (or btc). something to the effect of a btc paper based mutual fund indexed on usd. something like the above raises many interesting legal questions. I think I well formatted sub-forum focusing on these issues would be helpful [pull us out of meta hell] Title: Re: A sub-forum for btc legal dialogue?
