Great content as always. Thanks!

I'm interested in seeing how they distinguish which ICOs are securites and otherwise. Some tokens represent ownership of a company and some are utility tokens where the value will supposedly lie in their use on the platform/product. If they classify utility tokens as securities and impose strict regulations on their purchase and usage, they could inhibit the development in this space before we even get a true understanding of the value of these tokens.

What are your thoughts on this?
