With securities laws, substance often trumps form and much ink has been spilled on what constitutes a security. Even a partnership interest can be a security (often turning, in part, on how much real control a partner has). I have no doubt

Sort of. It's kind of institutionalizing the process by which you acquire and throw shit. And this is what should be institutionalized if you agree with Scott's premise that "success in the start-up realm is mostly luck&quo

I contemplated a response to the question from pshin45's friend, but decided it might be a fool's errand because the question itself suggested a deep misunderstanding of YC. I am hard pressed to imagine a more incorrect character

You might be surprised to learn how broadly the SEC and courts have interpreted terms like "offer" and "general solicitation".[1] An offer is any "attempt ... to dispose of ... a security ... for value".[2] Th

indiegogo.com started off focused on independent film making though they're now a more generalized crowdfunding platform (like kickstarter). I don't know much about their platform these days, but I know they had a lot of similar ideas when
