We had a few questions about the recent news around the State of Massachusetts Secretary of State's office action against Caviar. The nature of their complaint states that an agent at the Secretary of State's office was able to participate in Caviar's ICO with a fake passport, and that Caviar was not doing enough to screen participants and ensure that no residents of the State of MA could participate.
As most of you are aware, Caviar's position has always been to not accept any contributors from the US and the Cayman Islands, the team has been very upfront on this from the very start. Caviar is a Cayman Islands registered company, run by a team from various states and countries. Caviar's whitepaper, website and KYC are all designed to prevent residents of US and Cayman Islands from participating, and we take this very seriously.
We are very disappointed by this action, we do not feel anyone in the State of MA has been harmed. Out legal team is working on a response, we hope to have a meaningful dialogue with the Secretary and resolve this matter.
We will provide news updates as they become available.
What about this news? Any update?
I noticed the Caviar Capital banner on another website.
