Question about ICOs and the US

[BennyAndDeJets]

How come many ICOs make one of their requirements that you are not located within the US?  Is there some kind of law that bars ICO in the states or what is their reasoning?

[CourtneyTurner]

Yes, there is something called the SEC which prohibits ICO's to sell within the USA unless filed with them. Which is why our ICO Minerva, is completely done in SEC compliance.

Yes, SEC is the manager of icos in America, google the news yourself. In a word, most of icos are conflict with American stock laws.
