Episode 82: Reasonable Expectations: How the SEC (Now) Applies Howey to Crypto
By now, you’ve all heard about the latest SEC release on the application of federal securities laws to certain crypto assets and related transactions. You’ve probably read 12 law firm memos and seven million hot Tweets on the topic by now. But few of them answer the burning question: what does this mean for digital asset fund managers? Well, today’s your lucky day because Tokens of Wisdom is here to answer that very question.

- Brief summary of what the new SEC release is.
- Brief summary of what the new SEC release isn’t.
- How does the Atkins SEC apply the Howey Test differently from the Gensler SEC?
