Pretty much the only way a crypto becomes a security, is if the founders literally tell you they will make sure the value will go up.

Having an ICO etc. does not matter in the slightest since that's just a bundled sale event and falls under "investment of money", which applies to literally anything that is sold.

[Anonymous No.50678391]

>>50678365
given none of these investments work one very much does rely on continued effort of the founders/promoters ie ETH2 etc

all anons expect a profit from buying them lmao

People are free to speculate on whatever they want and expect the price to go up all they want, it's just that the seller can't say "we will make the price go up".

This, the mentally ill skeleton Russian fucked up by discussing price action multiple times live on camera, that's why ETH is going to get assraped by the SEC. He even did it again recently by discussing how the merge isn't priced in yet

[Anonymous No.50678642]

>>50678595
It's not enough for the seller to simply discuss possible future prices, they have to actually make it clear that THEY will make sure the price goes up.

I personally don't think I've seen or heard Vitalik do this, but feel free to post specifically what he said.

>>50678620
You haven't been following the case have you, or you're just Delusional... The SEC fucked up and let everyone see their corruption and dirty laundry. Ripple will ass fuck the SEC in front of the judge and then inform everybody that Ripple will let the SEC surrender and let the SEC lose the case.

Vitalik is doing two things on two separate occasions:
1) he's discussing a possible future price increase
and
2) he's talking about who's developing ETH

This is not the same thing as saying "we will make sure the price goes up".

>This is not the same thing as saying "we will make sure the price goes up".
Bend over backwards as much as you like to explain it away. ETH is an unregistered security under the Howey test. Whether it will end up being enforced is a different question. SEC doesn't want to "strifle innovation" so they might end up going home. Then again they didn't really do anything until Ripple and look at us now, they are investigating Binance chain, coinbase and kraken (iran sanctions). Maybe the SEC is only getting started now. They had very little staff and could only rarely go after anyone, so they focussed on criminals that they knew they could nail. If they thought there's little success they didnt bother, even if crimes were commited. Either way, things are heating up lots atm

Show me ETH devs saying "we will make sure the price goes up".

Because if there is no such literal quote, it becomes all but impossible to prove intent.

Are the USA a bunch of incompetent niggers that they don't even know who Satoshi is?
They are niggers but not incompetent.
Homeland Security has confirmed to know the identity of "satoshi". So you tell me, is BTC a unregistered security of Satoshi?

The Bitcoin Whales: 1,000 People Who Own 40 Percent of the Market
NBER found that the top 10% of miners control 90% of the Bitcoin mining capacity, and just 0.1% (about 50 miners) control 50% of mining capacity.

If XRP is a security than BTC is a security of Satoshi. I bought hoping it would pump to 1M
Checkmate.
The term "security" refers to a fungible, negotiable financial instrument that holds some type of monetary value. It represents an ownership position in a publicly-traded corporation via stock; a creditor relationship with a governmental body or a corporation represented by owning that entity's bond; or rights to ownership as represented by an option.

Ripple's absolutely destroying the sec, but that doesn't necessarily mean a win in the end. I've got my eyes on LBRY and hoping that summary judgement won't have some precedents the sec can use against Ripple.
