"Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto probably didn’t think that even the U.S. government would treat it as a currency and try to regulate it."
Citation needed.
From the opinion: "The question currently before the Court is whether the BTCST investments in this case are securities as defined by Federal Securities Laws."
This case was about whether a dude who was accepting deposits of Bitcoins and paying interest on them was in the securities business. Of course he was.
