This week we discuss the SEC, NFTs, and other TLA's (Three-Letter Acronyms)

Monday, August 28th marked another milestone in the SEC’s quest to exercise control over the rapidly expanding crypto space. The Commission charged L.A.-based media company Impact Theory, LLC for selling unregistered securities in the form of non-fungible tokens (NFTs). The SEC argues that Impact Theory’s “Founder’s Keys”—which it used to raise $30 million in capital—qualify as investment contracts.

If this is indeed an accurate assessment, that would have placed the onus on the issuer of this NFT to register as a security with the SEC.

For those who have been paying attention, this should all sound very familiar. The action follows closely behind the flurry of lawsuits around the alleged issuance and/or exchange of unregistered cryptocurrency tokens. 

The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) is usually the one handing out judgements. But just last month, the powerful self-regulatory agency (SRO) kind of got its own butt handed to it. 

A July decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit could ultimately undermine the very core of FINRA’s mission. Today, we are asking a fascinating question. 

Is FINRA unconstitutional? Recent court decisions say…maybe?

This week we welcome Ben Edwards, Professor at the William S. Boyd School of Law at UNLV to discuss what this decision could mean for our markets.

This week Dave Lauer and special guest Alexandra Damsker do a deep dive into the world of Crypto, CFTC, XRP, SEC, and a whole bunch of other acronyms and discuss the recent landmark decisions in the crypto world.
