Yes it is, honestly a lot of these defi shitcoin developers would be getting raped by the SEC and FinCEN if we didn't have chink flu

I've been thinking about making a $SCAM meme coin

>> No.21836829

>>21836283
Yeah. Even all the food themed meme tokens are dubious, since they are all essencialy just game-efied ponzi schemes.

>> No.21836837

>>21836716
That's not the same, is it?
Let's for example pretend I create a rugpull token and hold a large part of the supply. Is selling really illegal? Even if I state on the website/white paper that I can dump on them without any notice?

>> No.21836867

>>21836691
my theory is that they're just waiting for large financial institutions to get their ducks in a row in terms of implementing their own alt coins. The lawsuits/regulations will start once you start seeing major banks offering customers the ability to buy their own coins natively through their banking apps.

just create it and call it SCAM or SCHEME

I like the idea of a BLM reparation fund coin. You could sell it to all the SJW and they would pumping money into it like there is no tomorrow, it would skyrocket overnight. Please make this happen, I'm in.

Nothing illegal about making your own currency. Getting funding for a product that you have no intentions of finishing. Yes. So just make your own Meme currency. But no one will buy it.

Why would anybody buy those coins, if they're controlled by banks, that defeats the whole point, doesn't it?

If you’re american the law is so ambiguous and retarded that there’s no way to know. Take something like COOM, if the dev were to dump 10% of the tokens would that be wire fraud? Or if you did an ICO for a legitimate coin is that violating SEC rules? No one knows until some random bureaucrat decides on a whim that he wants to put you in prison for 20 years

>> No.21838413

>>21838287
American regulations are broad reaching and often contradictory so anyone of importance (wealthy) is bound to have committed some white-collar crime worthy of prison time. Its selectively enforced: sometimes its random and people get fucked for no reason, other times its to target political dissidents
