I just made a site for OrangeGroveCoin[1]. It's a fictional cryptocurrency that you should definitely buy because:
1. It’s an investment of money.
2. It’s a common enterprise.
3. You can expect to make money from the efforts of others.
It's also not a security because it's a token.
I made it recently, after having the idea years ago when I worked at Coinbase. I didn't do it then because I wasn't sure that the SEC would get the joke. It seems like maybe they would have, because they would later make a site for HoweyCoins[2]
I published the site and made a post on LinkedIn. I also had an accompanying joke startup persona. It did not really go as I hoped. No one got the joke. People commented on my pivot, or asked to buy. Old coworkers I emailed about it ignored it, assumably numb to crypto announcements.
I might as well dump the rest of the content here[3].
