Is a big loss for SEC a BIG win for NFTs?
- The token (XRP) itself is not a security.
- Ripple’s sale of XRP on crypto exchanges isn’t a securities offering.
- A token is completely separate from the investment contract. This is a legal thing the crypto industry’s been fighting for.
This potentially clears a road for NFT projects that issue tokens.
Not a final ruling though, and Congress may weigh in…
SEC still targeting 68 other tokens as securities. https://cointelegraph.com/news/sec-labels-61-cryptocurrencies-securities-after-binance-suit
