SEC will reach a conclusion on ETH this next Monday.

If it's declared a security, the price will drop a lot.
If it's not declared a security it will go up a lot.

What are your plans for this? Do you think it will be declared a security or not?

Are you buying/selling ETH now in anticipation of the decision?

I think this will also probably affect EOS since the two are seen as competitors.

ETH not security.
EOS security.

ETH is massively undervalued relative to the rest of the market and will go to number 1 spot whatever happens.

somewhat correct. it pumped because insiders already know it won't be declared a security, but it's going to pump further after the news hit (public sentiment + manipulators burning the "sell the news" shorters)

Insiders and lobbists that tried to bribe the SEC know the answer already... and you could deduce it too from the price action of the last few days... SHITCOIN will DUMP HARD...

>>9263204
On May 2nd, the co-founder of Ethereum foundation said he was certain ETH was not a security. I think this might have influenced the price increase these past 3 days.

I know EOS won't be mentioned now, but it went down a little on 3rd May even though it's recovering now. Maybe this wasn't the only reason, but it might have been part of it.

Of course they know.

>>9263346
Considering the price went up, I was thinking people bought it knowing it won't be declared a security.

But you can never be sure...

Since you're saying it will dump, I'm guessing you think the current price pump is artificially made so that insiders can sell at a higher price?

if ethereum is a security, the entire market will crash equally, apart from bitcoin, because it means every other coin that had an ico, premine, insta-mine, or presale is a security.

>> No.9263569

>>9263168
I don't share the optimism
Relevant is not what it is now, if one can mine it or whatever, relevant is, that it was distributed first through ICO. ETH is 100% a security, even if it is not now, it need to be regulated, which means from Monday on, mutts will be excluded from eth and erc 20 token

bs, they could easily create their own subsidised blockchain, secured by the US military. Decentralised blockchains not controlled by a state or state like entity will fail over time. Also, has nothing to do with if ICOs were conducted illegal under certain regulations or not. Monday is kill day

they did however keep most of their supply between devs and people that bought thousands of captchas for a few dollars. nano has bigger problems.

I'm actually a corporate and securities lawyer. Although I don't have personal experience in the crypto space, I've spoken to lawyers who do. ETH is highly unlikely to be declared a security. Do with that information what you will.

Kek what are you even babbling about? "Muh military guard the blockchain". The whole use case for this shit is in public usage & trustless applications. Private blockchains are a meme - use a fuck database, much easier.
