yeah. there is a video out there of Richard talking with lawyers that he should be worried about the FTC because HEX is more like security and will be regulated as one. and that richard will be fined for not following securities law, etc.
thats why boomtown didnt reply to my message because he knows the FUD is a potential reality

I'm a boring investor almost all in BTC. I just googled him after seeing his persona and all that came up.

So stupid. You mine and mint your own coins. You don't profit off the work of others. Bitcoin with proof of stake.
You are a foolish individual and I'm officially done here.

there's also defi regulations that he is strategically skirting by not listing on coinbase and other cefi exchanges
This guy claims to root for crypto….yet says anything not on coinbase or CENTRALIZED exchanges isn’t really crypto.
Tell me sir, do you think Satoshi would be rooting for centralized exchanges like coinbase? That’s why he made BTC right? (You know the answer but you’ll still try to save yourself)
I don’t think you understand why satoshi made btc

There are quite a few articles about it. Actually this all makes me interested in learning about it
My first impression of Richard was that he was a kook then maybe a performance artist.

no?
and im not saying i agree with the SEC or gensler on what theyre trying to do with defi because i make a lot of money using the chains but that has nothing to do with the point here.
i dont want the sec to get involved in this space just as much as you guys

So proof of stake is now a security?
I hope Eth registers as one after EIP1559

according to gensler, if someone is raising money and selling a token and the buyer is anticipating profits that fits into a security classification
not my words btw. that's almost verbatim to what he says

1. Raising money for hex? The project was done, so it was an even exchange. I traded eth for hex. Just like you trade $1 for a pack of gum. (I mean, i’ve made a personal investment in a business. I know there’s no guarantee I’ll make a profit but I anticipate that I will).
2. He’s never made profits for me. So I’m confused by that. Yes, the value of hex itself has gone up a lot (people buying and selling) but no one is working to give me that interest I gain from staking (it’s just like eth will be. Proof of stake)
And if I’m not mistaken, I believe Vitalek did something similar when eth started? And a few others popular coins also. They gave you the chance to swap BTC for eth before it went “live”. By your logic then, Vitalik should pucker up.

What Is a Financial Security? At a basic level, a security is a financial asset or instrument that has value and can be bought, sold, or traded. Some of the most common examples of securities include stocks, bonds, options, mutual fund shares, and ETF shares. Securities have certain tax implications in the United States and are under tight government regulation.
So wouldnt all of crypto be a security?

99% of crypto would be according to gensler. yeah
I am not a fan of what he is doing
btw I'll emphasize again I am not rooting against hexicans. I'm only skeptical of it long term (and I might be wrong on that)

Once this pulse airdrop happens, what's to prevent everyone from dumping half their hex to take profits? Why wouldn't we expect the price to crash?

quote:You can, that is what we do here. Just saying, its a noticeable difference between the Hexicans and everyone else when it comes to that.
Defensive? That’s the go to now? I guess we can’t call people out that have been WRONG about a product for almost 2 years now

quote:Correct, which is why ETH will be classified as a security if the SEC ever really cracks down.
And if I’m not mistaken, I believe Vitalek did something similar when eth started?
Pre-mined projects fall into that category
quote:Also yes, which is why I focus on BTC long term.
