OpenSea riceve la "Notifica Wells" della SEC - Reazione del settore
Riassumiamo i commenti sull'ultima azione di coercizione della SEC. Tutti gli NFT saranno trattati come titoli?

Questa mattina, OpenSeaha detto di aver ricevuto un avviso Wells della Securities Exchange Commission che avvisava che l'agenzia stava per citare in giudizio la principale piattaforma NFT per violazione delle leggi sui titoli. L'azione minacciata è l'ultima di una lunga serie di mosse simili da parte della SEC e la reazione del settore Cripto è stata feroce e quasi uniforme. Ecco un piccolo campione rappresentativo.
Tyler Winklevoss, fondatore di Winklevoss Capital Management e della borsa Gemini:
The @SECGov is now trying to claim that NFTs are securities. What's next? Baseball cards? Comic books? @GaryGensler's bad faith and un-American war on crypto is expanding. Digital web3 creators and artists are now in the crosshairs. https://t.co/boCbFI0O3p

Sheila Warren, CEO del Cripto Council, un gruppo commerciale (GG = Gary Gensler; guidare un “esercito anti-cripto” era un’ambizione dell’alleata di Gensler, la senatrice Elizabeth Warren (D-MA)):
Latest round of reg by enforcement spurred by GG, the general of the “anti-crypto army.”

We stand with @opensea and creators everywhere, and commend @dfinzer for his leadership. https://t.co/jqXdGrUlfw
In terzo luogo, abbiamo Jake Chervinsky del Variant Fund, il quale sostiene che gli NFT T dovrebbero essere tutelati da leggi inventate molti decenni prima (il Securities Act è stato approvato nel 1933):
The SEC has fully lost the plot.

The idea that a financial markets regulator established in the 1930s would have jurisdiction over digital art in the 2020s defies not only common sense but also the SEC's statutory authority.
Thanks to @opensea for fighting the good fight 🫡 https://t.co/7Fxx0Ulv5m
Prossimo: Gwart, autodescritto "Cripto-Twitter troll", che discute le implicazioni più ampie del fatto che la SEC apparentemente si stia occupando della categoria NFT, molto estesa:
If opensea is a securities exchange then so is Etsy and all the hipsters selling pieces of bedazzled driftwood that say “live, laugh, love” for $800 should be thrown in jail too. We just want consistency here.

Ryan Sean Adams, co-fondatore di Bankless:
The SEC is now planning to sue OpenSea under the claim that NFTs are securities.
— RYAN SΞAN ADAMS - rsa.eth 🦄 (@RyanSAdams) August 28, 2024
So yes @RitchieTorres, apparently Gary Gensler does think tokenized pokemon cards are securities.
OpenSea is now the 6th American born crypto success story under attack by SEC this year - they're…
Il VC Adam Cochrane:
Easily one of the dumbest Hail Marys Gensler has thrown and yet another reason why he has to be out under any new admin.
— Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) (@adamscochran) August 28, 2024
It’s clear NFTs are art.
Can you sell art as a security? Sure see @Masterworks
Does OpenSea do that? No.
And the SEC is also targeting them once they’ve… https://t.co/0PFy7IaiM4
L'ex commissario della CFTC Brian Quintenz (ora a16z):
News of @Opensea receiving a Wells Notice shows plain and simple that the current SEC’s crusade against the crypto industry continues unabated. This is in contrast to what Vice President Harris said two weeks ago announcing her economic agenda: pic.twitter.com/cafsHJ6DhU

Jameson Lopp, sostenitore di Bitcoin, sostiene che, se l'intento della SEC è quello di proteggere gli investitori, è in ritardo di anni:
The SEC is swooping in to protect investors from digital art... several years after NFT investors lost all their money. 🤡https://t.co/PgpLQR3AqW
— Jameson Lopp (@lopp) August 28, 2024
Roham Gharegozlou, CEO di Dapper Labs, che ha diversi progetti NFT:
NFTs that are not financial in nature are clearly not securities and most lawmakers we interface with understand this — we @dapperlabs are working toward legal clarity for NFTs through forthcoming legislation to be introduced in Congress and support OpenSea in their fight as well https://t.co/zhj4LIetjW

REP Wiley Nickel (D-NC):
Very disappointing to see @SECGov’s continued regulation by enforcement, now targeting #NFT marketplace @opensea.
— Rep. Wiley Nickel (@RepWileyNickel) August 28, 2024
The SEC and Gary Gensler should abandon this path and work with Congress to establish clear and fair regulations that foster innovation and keep jobs in the U.S.
E infine, Anthony Scaramucci, secondo cui Gensler sta vanificando i recenti sforzi dei democratici di stringere alleanze nella comunità Cripto :
Gensler wants Harris to lose the election. https://t.co/GT2PpaGIt8
