No moral panic here, I've got nothing against gambling. I love to gamble. However, crypto is clearly utilized in this case for the trading of unregistered securities via regulatory arbitrage. That's just fact.
Good luck out there, and I hope you win! You'll need it, though, it is after all a mob casino you're gambling in.
This is the classic "I know it's a crooked casino but it's the only game in town" argument. The big issue there is you can't know the odds because the house is playing against you and they can see your hand and they can and do frequently turn the lights off if things start to move against them. This is of course why we register securities and regulate brokerages.
I'm pretty confident we'll recapitulate that in due time.
- repomies69 5y agoGambling and unregistered securities are fundamentally very different things. Gambling is activity where usually house is guaranteed to win, and player is guaranteed to lose. Unregistered securities are just securities, but not government approved. Generally it is believed that unregulated securities are way more risky. However also government approved securities can be scams or bad investments.
