🧵 Thread of the Week - The Senate Bill from Sen. Lummis - The

By @namcios

1/ Senator Cynthia Lummis @CynthiaMLummis has officially released her landmark bill covering #Bitcoin and digital assets.

Here are the major points in the bipartisan bill introduced with Senator Gillibrand @SenGillibrand.

A thread 🧵…

2/ Medium of Exchange

The bill encourages the usage of #bitcoin and digital currencies as a medium of exchange. It provides a tax exemption for transactions of up to $200.

3/ Commodity or security?

The bill defines a framework for differentiating which digital assets are commodities and which are securities. It uses the Howey test to determine that an ancillary asset is *not* inherently a security…

4/…An ancillary asset is an intangible, fungible asset that is offered, sold or provided to a person in connection with the purchase and sale of a security through an arrangement or scheme that constitutes an investment contract. So…

5/…To be classified as a security, the digital asset must provide the holder with a debt or equity interest in a business entity, liquidation rights or entitlement to interest or dividend payments from a entity, profit or revenue share in an entity…

6/…derived “solely from the entrepreneurial or managerial efforts of others,” or any other financial interest in the entity. But there is another aspect to it…

7/ Digital assets not fully decentralized and which benefit from entrepreneurial and managerial efforts that determine the value of the assets but are not debt or equity or don’t create rights to profits or other financial interests in a business entity are NOT securities if…

8/…*if disclosures are filed with the SEC twice a year.*

The presumption that an ancillary asset is a commodity can be appealed in court. So if the SEC wants to claim that a given digital asset is a security and not a commodity, it needs to go to court.

9/ In sum, the majority of large digital assets would be classified as commodities under the text introduced by @SenLummis and @SenGillibrand.Naturally, the SEC will oversee the securities whereas the CFTC will regulate the commodities. BTC & ETH are guaranteed as commodities.

10/ CFTC

Lummis-Gillibrand grants the CFTC exclusive spot market jurisdiction over all digital assets classified as commodities.Exchanges will register with the CFTC to conduct trading activities and abide by some rules.

- U.S. #bitcoin spot ETF more likely if bill approved.

11/ SEC & CFTC 

Are tasked with studying and reporting on the creation of a self-regulatory organization (SRO) that could complement the regulatory work.

They also are tasked with developing a set of cybersecurity guidances for digital asset service providers.

12/ Energy

The bill also requires a study on the power consumption of digital assets.

It’ll seek to determine the best ways to ensure #Bitcoin helps society move closer to climate goals w/ deployment of more renewables and clean energy, and reducing energy waste.

13/ Miners

The bill provisions that miners are not to be seen as brokers and #bitcoin obtained from their activities is not to be treated as income until converted into fiat currency like dollars. It also specifies that digital asset lending agreements are not taxable events.

14/ 401(k)

The bill requires the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to analyze the opportunities and risks associated with investing in #bitcoin and digital assets with retirement accounts. Findings are to be reported to Congress, Treasury Department and Labor Department.

15/ Consumer Protections

The bipartisan bill will require providers of digital assets to disclose information about their product, including source code versioning and the legal treatment of each digital asset. Also…

16/ Self-custody

The bill grants the right to a person to keep and control the digital assets they own. 🔒

17/ Other provisions include aspects on stablecoin, an advisory committee, and clear definitions for the digital asset space. Catch a more detailed breakdown in my latest article for Bitcoin Magazine


Peer Launches ICO Alternative for Vetted Blockchain Projects Called the ICX

By: Mike Gavela

Peer, a Web3 social network and blockchain company, recently announced an alternative to the Initial Coin Offering (ICO) called the Initial Coin Exchange (ICX). The ICX provides a framework for an evidence-based fundraising standard for established blockchains and decentralized apps that promotes responsible innovation, global participation, and rapid validation. 

ICO stands for "initial coin offering" and refers to a formerly popular method of fundraising capital for early-stage cryptocurrency projects. In an ICO, a blockchain-based startup mints a certain quantity of its native digital token and offers them to early investors. In contrast to initial public offerings governed by strict legal regulations, ICOs require only a white paper and some exciting features, such as a lack of barrier to entry, a scope for exponential growth, absence of geographical barriers, and easy validation. A 2018 Satis report prepared for Bloomberg stated that almost 80% of ICOs at the time were believed to be fraudulent sales."

Peer looks to evolve beyond the ICO and bring investor confidence back to the investor community regarding early-stage crypto investing. As it stands, an initial coin offering requires very little to launch and raise capital. In an ICX, a token offering must have day one utility, and the company or lab offering the token must have some IP moat. The offering must follow the securities laws and regulations of its current jurisdiction. Peer has partnered with Verifyinvestor.com for its KYC verification for the US accredited investors. Peer views an ICX as the funding stage between collecting checks from angel investors and preparing for a seed round being led by a VC. 

Essentially, an ICX is for crypto companies and projects which are past the prototyping phase and are looking for their next round of funding before seeking seed-stage investors. An ICX involves a token that can be fully used on day one and is not just some pie-in-the-sky idea or whitepaper filled with marketing fluff. The company must have proven and demonstrable substance through an IP-moat and follow the rules and regulations of its jurisdiction. Peer expects to launch the world's first ICX on June 27, 2022, via its purpose-built platform.

📝 Highlights from the Top Crypto Reports

Here are the top highlights from the best crypto research reports this week…

Kraken Intelligence: May 2022 Market Recap & Outlook

About the Author: Kraken is the world’s largest global digital asset exchange based on euro volume and liquidity. Kraken’s global client base trades over 90 digital assets and 7 different fiat currencies.

About the Article: This is an excerpt from the full article, which you can find here

  • ETH's market activity during May 2022 closely mirrored that of BTC. ETH hit a 10-month low of $1,724 on May 27th, before rebounding and ending the month at $1,944. ETH recorded a loss of -29%, larger than BTC's -16% loss for the month.

  • ETH's annualized volatility started off the month at 59% and closed the month at 100%, a 7-month high.

  • The long-awaited Ethereum 2.0 update, the "Merge," is on track to go live in August 2022. The Merge is the next major step in Ethereum's migration to Ethereum 2.0 that will transition the network from proof-of-work to proof-of-stake. On May 30th, Ethereum Foundation developer Tim Beiko announced that the Ethereum Foundation launched a new Beacon Chain for the Ropsten testnet. The launch is part of a test run slated for June 8, 2022, serving as a beta environment for the Merge. Ropsten testnet simulates the environment of the Ethereum mainnet but will not impact it. OpenEthereum, one of the most popular Ethereum clients, ended support for its software this month in anticipation of the Merge.

  • In line with overall crypto market performance, activity in NFT markets slowed down in May. Daily users and daily transactions were relatively flat at -7% and +1.1% MoM, respectively. However, NFT volume saw a significant decrease, with daily volume dropping by 87.1%. 

Innovation & Developments

  • Kraken announced a waitlist for its upcoming Kraken NFT marketplace. Kraken NFT features zero gas fees for trading activity, built-in tools to track rarity scores for NFTs, buy and list NFTs for cash or crypto, access to NFTs across multiple blockchains, and industry-leading security, and Creator Earnings to reward artists and innovators.

  • The National Football League (NFL) partnered with Mythical Games to launch its own play-to-earn game that will run on the Mythical Chain protocol. The launch will kick off with the sale of 32 franchise-themed NFTs. Capital Raises.

  • Dapper Labs launched a $725M fund that will back projects native to the Flow ecosystem. Andreessen Horowitz launched a $600M fund that will back metaverse gaming projects. Other capital raises this month include BAYC ($285M), NCG Ventures ($100M), Zora ($50M), N3TWORK Studios ($46M), Irreverent Labs ($40M), Co:Create ($25M), Arianee ($21M), Branch ($12.5M), Highlight ($11M), Cometh ($10M), Nyan Heroes ($7.5M), UnicornDAO ($4.5M), and Ready Games ($3M).

  • To gauge sentiment among whales throughout May, we look to the amount of BTC and ETH held in whale wallets. Note that we define a "whale" as a wallet with more than $1,000 or =10,000.

  • It was a relatively quiet month for BTC whale activity. The amount of BTC held by whales decreased slightly from $8.07M to $8.04M MoM, and the number of BTC whales decreased from 2,280 to 2,212.

  • On Ethereum, changes in whale activity notably spiked on May 10th, when the amount of ETH held by whales hit a high of E81.8M before falling sharply to end the month at =81.6M. Similarly, the number of ETH whales started off at 1,302 and spiked mid-month, but closed at 1,308, remaining largely unchanged from the beginning of the month.
