The definition of ‘security’ is set out in the Securities Act of 1933. The definition includes “investment contracts,” which is typically most relevant when assessing digital assets. Whether or not a something qualifies as an investment contract, and thus a security, depends on the application of the U.S. Supreme Court’s “Howey Test.” The Howey test has three elements:

1. There must be an investment of money;
2. The investment must be in a common enterprise;
3. There must have been a reasonable expectation of profits reliant on the effort of others


>not a dividend since its not paid out to people holding
your point is to #2. however, almost everyone is staking their 32eth with companies....no one is running nodes / validators independently. This inconvenient fact causes #2 to apply as well, thus it will be deemed a "security contract"

So you running your own node...you aren't doing so with "the reasonable expectation of profit"

The best argument ETH can make is "we are decentralized". The biggest argument against that was "it was premined and sold".

Look, I've been in crypto since 2012. I was a grown man then....all these arguments were known and people tried to advise Vitalik on best ways to proceed. He didn't listen because of: retardation + autism.

You don't seem to get it. Its actually not even about "going after eth"

the question is who should regulate ETH? Looking at facts dispassionately its hard to come up with reasons of why it shouldn't be regulated by SEC.

All of this is irrelevant. ETH1 was confirmed not a security. ETH2 requires you to do work to get a profit, it's not a dividend. Case closed, says this not a lawyer, but neither are you.

You might actually be on to something there. Eth so far is merely a tool for pajeet scammers to extract money from retards who would have spent it on lottery tickets otherwise. XRP and Flare represent a genuine threat to the status quo, though.

you seem to think law is autism, its not. Its shades of grey that are interpreted by people.

eth premine = security
eth premine benefiting eth foundation = security
eth being staked with others = security
running your own node/validator = not security

as I said. Eth may skate by...but its certainly going to court and certainly the SEC may wind up imposing massive changes to the "defi landscape".

How does Eth work with no defi?

>> No.25086682

>>25086613
>eth premine = security
>eth premine benefiting eth foundation = security
Again, Eth1 already confirmed not a security by the SEC. Discarded.
>eth being staked with others = security
Good. This makes delegated staking less attractive. This would imply the delegated staking companies are offering a security, not that ETH2 is one.
>running your own node/validator = not security
Alright then.

Alright, we'll see if the SEC sues the ETH foundation.

fair enough.

here is how the noose will tighten.
* almost all defi will declared a security (uni, balancer, yield farming, etc) thus will be banned from regulated exchanges and exist only decentralized (not hosted in US)
* all non-Fed stablecoins will be banned outright (Tether, USDC, etc) only decentralized versions will remains (Dai, Ampl, etc)
* Kyc restrictions will be put in place to prevent move funds from one of the above to your KYC exchange wallet

This leaves some remnant of a ETH ecosystem, but severely hobbled. The only thing that will cruise by relatively unscathed is BTC.
Where do you think value will accrue?

>> No.25087301

>>25087221
As long as ETH itself is legal the effects won't be disasterous imo. Regulation was always coming for defi, it's obviously illegal or at least gray area. We'll see how it plays out. I've got time, my horizon is 5+ years easy.
