Re: Legal side of altcoin/ ico/ crowdsale?

Hello guys,

I am working on one new crowd sale project and I am concern regarding legal parts of ICO projects.

I have found couple of cases where USA institution is going after ICO projects.

What's your opinion on that, guys?

There have been multiple ICOs which have been conducted till now. There are diverse views on the legal aspects, and whether existing securities regulations apply to ICOs. You can find a summary here
