Did Brave raise $35M by Illegally Selling Unregistered Securities?

in #news7 years ago

I just read a Medium article written by David Gobaud about Brave (the browser) and the money it raised with BAT (Basic Attention Token). I've invested a good amount into BAT - is my money going to disappear? I don't think they committed securities fraud. I don't think ETH or any cryptocurrency is considered a security, but considered a stock. As we all know Uncle Sam can come after us for capital gains. So there's that. Give me your thoughts on the article.

Happy Trading Steemers!
