I don't think securities laws do what you think they do. I'd rather people wade into the unregulated world where its buyer beware than to get the stamp of approval by regulators. These people are basically crowd sourcing buying a cultural artifact and it didn't work out. Who was harmed?

- pavlov 5y ago"Crowdsourcing buying a cultural artifact" is already a thing. It's called a private museum. They are in fact a quite popular type of non-profit. Billions of dollars are donated annually to private museums. They are run by dedicated professionals who understand the history that makes the collection relevant and the processes required to maintain it in good condition. But no, all that competence goes out of the window when crypto-bro wakes up one day and comes up with the idea of buying a museum piece with donation money.
