  1. People should understand that companies going forward will just issue crypto tokens instead of deal with the securities regulations that have protected investors for a century. There will be no disclosure of things like income, assets, ownership structure, and risks.

    The #SEC has already changed the rules so that a company that wants to issue a token to raise money can just say "this is not a security and thus is unregulatable" and if the SEC does not object within 60-90 days then that company is in the clear permanently.

    Mark my words, we're going to see #SpaceX, #Tesla, #OpenAI, and all the other opaque private companies burning insane amounts of money issuing tokens in the not to distant future.

  6. Howey’s Silo Series of books has an interesting premise. There are sections that I thought were well-executed. But ultimately there are too many holes in his plot for it to be successful for me.

    I’m glad I took the time to read the books. I’m very curious to see how Graham Yost deals with the plot’s problems for the remaining two seasons. He’s already substantially changed the role of some of the characters who play roles in the first and third book.

  11. I was going to treat myself, and purchase the Audible book of Hugh #Howey's "Dust" novel, the 3rd in the silo series. Have read all of them, and own the other 2, thought it would be good to have the set.

    I was presented with a price of $25.50 for the audio book. I gasped, and then looked around. If I was willing to sign up for their damned Audible membership, I could get 1 credit (good for 1 book) for $14.95, the usual cost of an audio book at Amazon. Of course, I could use the credit, and then cancel the membership.

    I didn't. This is Amazon desperately trying to game their numbers for their shareholders.

"The #SEC has generally submitted #cryptocurrency projects to the so-called #Howey test—by which every asset sold with the promise of profits deriving from someone else’s efforts qualifies as a security—and has slapped major players with lawsuits and fines for selling #crypto tokens to the public without abiding by securities law. ... “Cryptocurrency issuers aren’t providing those #disclosures, and #investors and speculators are getting harmed.” wired.com/story/cryptos-free-r

    #Howey Ou, 18 ans. La «Greta Thunberg chinoise»

    Le #Mormont fait une nouvelle fois parler de lui. L’association “Ecologie et altruisme” a remis ce mardi après-midi à la Présidente du Grand Conseil vaudois une pétition. Muni de 1’167 signatures, le texte demande de sauver “les animaux et les orchidées sauvages” de cette fameuse colline du Mormont, située entre Eclépens et La Sarraz.
