Bitcoin is racist according to the SEC. Heil Satoshi!
We trully live in a bizarre world nowadays
I've read a lot of bullshits about cryptos, but this one is amoung the winners.
I thought I had heard the worst when Greenpeace attacked the Bitcoin network with the slogan: "Change the code, not the climate".
So according to them, Bitcoin (and altcoins ofc) creates financial damages to many minority investors because they don't have the knowledge to assess the risks associated with crypto.
In another words, Bitcoin makes them loosing money because people are lazy to learn where they're investing in...
L@@k at FTX and co...
We have observed that the volume of, and activity around, crypto assets have grown
significantly in scale over the last five years with very large fluctuations in value.
Many investors recently have suffered significant losses as a result of their
investments in crypto assets. It is estimated that these losses have been more than
$2 trillion.1
As a result of targeted marketing, a significant amount of these losses have been
borne by unsophisticated investors, including many minority investors seeking rapid
investment growth without the knowledge or information to assess the risks
associated with such investments
And
We believe that virtually all, if not all, crypto tokens are securities and that they, as well as the platforms and
custodians dealing with them, are subject to regulation under the federal securities laws to protect investors.
Accordingly, the offering of crypto asset securities and the platforms trading them should comply with the
registration, disclosure, anti-fraud provisions and other investor protector provisions of the federal securities laws.
We think it is very unfortunate and disturbing that there are legislative proposals to carve crypto assets out of the
federal securities laws and undermine investor protection.
The SEC should continue to be aggressive in bringing enforcement actions against companies that are violating the
federal securities laws in the crypto space, including, issuers, custodians and those acting as unregistered
platforms that offer trading in crypto asset investments.
