Most DEX frontends aren't brokers. That's true for @coinbase, and it should prove true for @Uniswap and @Consensys. The SEC doesn't care. When told they were wrong on the law, their response was to go look for another judge... Good on @Consensys for beating them to the punch💪

A huge announcement from the UK @hmtreasury that they will focus on decentralization policy as a priority in implementing their new cryptoasset regime. The UK could be the first jurisdiction to get this right, which would make it the blockchain superpower of the world.

1/ When you want to launch a token, there are several steps you need to think about from an ops perspective. This applies even more when you’re working with stakeholders that get audited.
One of the most frequent questions we get from founders is… “How do I approach a token launch?” So @milesjennings , @jasonrosenthal, & @Adina_S_Fischer put together a playbook covering the how, when, and what, as it relates to token launches. Dig into the posts ⤵️
Interest in memecoins will come and go, and I'm optimistic that real products/protocols will develop in the end. But we shouldn't pretend that the casino doesn't set us back. Deterring great founders and giving ammo to politicized regulators has a profound effect.

Yet the SEC approved ETH Futures ETF in October of 2023. So Gensler needs to be under oath, explaining why he approved something that he believes was a security and under investigation. Can’t have it both ways.
*CONSENSYS CLAIMS SEC ENFORCEMENT DIRECTOR APPROVED A FORMAL ORDER TO INVESTIGATE ETHEREUM IN MARCH 2023: COURT FILING - THE BLOCK PRO
To be clear, Shkreli is on a warpath against an AI shitcoin because *he himself* is launching an AI shitcoin soon. Hopefully his computer will not be hacked again, which is what happened to his last shitcoin (not AI, just regular)
JUST IN: Former hedge fund manager and convicted felon Martin Shkreli reportedly rug pulled a #crypto token he launched last month.
The guy who spent time in prison for securities fraud and jacking up the price of insulin 50x has entered our industry and is publicly calling out scams and being a voice of reason which makes me think maybe we’ve underestimated how much of a cesspool this place really is tbh
'As easy as sending an email.' This should be something that #crypto attorney clients can benefit from and I appreciate the open source of how to do so. This is beneficial and there should be an open dialogue on 'standards' around token issuance for a better regulatory framework.
Launching a token can be as easy as sending an email. Unlocking their potential as a new digital primitive and bringing them to market is much harder. I’ve worked with dozens of founders tackling this challenge and am now releasing a 3-part playbook written for everyone. 🧵
I used to love taking stupid analogies like this apart in argument "My learned friend's argument perfectly shows the mistake at the core of his case. Under his view, if law required heat transmitting licences, the frying pan would need to apply for a licence. But since the law…
The US Gov alleges that FINCens MSB guidelines do not require control over funds as *checks notes* a frying pan transfers heat, but does not exercise „control“ over what is being transferred.
I guess I strongly disagree with most founders and CEOs in the space. “Traditional” skills can be taught much easier than the curiosity required to become “crypto native”.
Having talked to a number of founders and CEOs recently, interesting that it’s universally agreed upon the worst people to hire are crypto natives, and the best being people from outside who built an active (healthy) interest and respect for the space. I think when you’re…
Went to UCLA this afternoon to talk to people peacefully. Few interesting takeaways: 1) Most of them openly say they support Hamas, a designated terrorist organization; 2) They say 10/7 atrocities, rapes, murders, didn’t happen. The official line is “even the NYT debunked it!”;…
Its widely noted that the lack of clear crypto regulations advantages bad actors. But so does the lack of independent journalists in the space. There's very little broad public exposure of bad actors - particularly early in the lives of their projects, when bright red flags are…
7/ Crypto will keep happening, too. But it will happen better when we listen closely to those we agree with. And even more closely to those with whom we don't.
6/ The Zakses of Dr. Seuss never resolved their differences and, at the end of the story, change wound up happening around them.
5/ I found this discussion by some of the smartest people I know in crypto inspiring, even though I agree in some places more with some and elsewhere more with others. But it is important to remember that we can all sing together, even if some sing bass and others contralto.
4/ The discussion of how to manage this technology cannot and should not be like the Zakses - two sides hewing a single line in opposite directions in an open landscape.
3/ So why the Zakses? The governed and the governing are part of a single system - "us". Crypto technology is here, whether one likes it or not.
2/ The ability to transfer and manipulate a certain source of value through crypto is one of the most important technological developments of our time.
1/ Technology and policy are in a constant discussion. Statutes, rules, and social mores of necessity evolve as human ingenuity (and sometimes stupidity) develop new tools for interaction.
@milesjennings these paths are not mutually exclusive; in fact I really think they're synergistic we should be pursuing Balajiesque T.A.Z.s *and* we should be trying to make legacy legal systems better boths paths will inform each other and interact and have mutual influence/inspo
