      "body": "![](https://media.coindesk.com/uploads/2018/02/stainedglass-860x430.jpg) Some envision an apocalyptic battle between cryptocurrencies and regulators, others foresee blockchain innovations becoming too powerful to be tamed. But Ryan Selkis, widely known by his Twitter moniker TwoBitIdiot, isn't devoted to either one of these futures. The founder of Messari, a nascent crypto version of CrunchBase, is more measured - thinking there's no reason to panic, but that this isn't a time for complacency, either. To that end, he announced his solution Tuesday - a crypto token that will seek to protect the industry by pushing it toward self-regulation. But if a year or more of furiously critiquing ICO practices makes it seem like Selkis is against tokenized crowdfunding, he's not; in fact, his criticism is directed at making sure a good idea isn't ruined by bad behavior. While self-regulation has been a hot topic in the broader crypto industry for some time, it has yet to see a whole lot of pick-up (besides a very recent development in Japan). But, according to Selkis, regulators have been consistent in their approach toward the nascent industry. After all, there's no doubt specific regulators like the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) have taken a keener interest in the crypto token market as of late. And that's why Selkis believes now is the time for his concept to shine. Selkis told CoinDesk: \"If we do something like this, it will certainly be this year, because I think the window is closing on the industry in terms of how long we have to essentially self-regulate without top-down enforcement actions really putting a freeze on token activity.\" A new orthodoxyStepping back, Selkis first announced Messari in October, at the time calling the project an open-source EDGAR (the public SEC database for securities) for tokens. In today's announcement, he furthered that concept, describing how other self-regulatory bodies have evolved over time to become significant organizations - citing the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and the National Futures Association (NFA). But precedent aside, it remains unclear just how to get the crypto industry, which is decentralized, global and so inherently hard to pin down, to come together over the issue. In the announcement, Selkis wrote: \"I'm confident we could get a decent amount of the way toward self-regulation based on social pressure. But until recently, I didn't really think there were good enforcement mechanisms or financial incentives to make any self-regulatory efforts reliable.\" Looking ahead, he's convinced he found that mechanism through a decentralized list attached to an agreed-upon set of standards, all of which is governed by a token. The model is called a \"token-curated registry,\" and Selkis acknowledges the idea will only work with broad buy-in crypto's leading luminaries. Evangelizing disciplesAs such, Selkis, who noted that everything about the idea is still \"subject to change,\" outlined his vision for the token in today's blog post. A token-curated registry is essentially a list vetted by people that hold a token to allow them to control who gets on the list. On Messari's particular list would be compliant projects funded by ICOs. Selkis expects the vetted voters to be key stakeholders in the industry - the entities (such as hedge funds, exchanges and advisers) that regulators would hold accountable if investor abuse became widespread. \"As stakeholders, I think there would be intrinsic benefits to owning a stake in a system that greenlights token offerings as abiding by certain minimal levels of transparency and standards,\" he said. To facilitate compliance, token projects would have to make certain disclosures (currently being developed), such as the critical facts about the token, like the vesting schedule for different groups, commitments to auditing and the token's economics would need to be detailed on the site. Selkis sees a future where Messari indirectly reinforces good behavior since stakeholders would become reluctant to work with companies that fail to get on the Messari list. While there's a number of companies that gather smaller data sets about token projects today, most of those services are pay-for-access businesses, whereas Messari would be open. \"Siloing data and information in this industry is going to be a losing business model,\" said Selkis. Awaiting scriptureStill, those who have been following the Messari project may have noticed we're still at the idea stage. In fact, the announcement is short on specifics. There's no hard cap, no soft cap and no vesting terms. We could even imagine a scenario in which Messari used a unique token, like an ERC-721, but it could also be the simple ERC-20. None of that has been finalized. In fact, Selkis isn't even ready to say what kind of legal structure he expects to employ. This is part of the process. Most projects have to build technology. Besides that, Selkis has to build something much more delicate: buy in. \"There's still a lot of research and development to do this right,\" Selkis said. But the pressure Selkis feels is not from the regulatory community, here or abroad. \"I think they've recognized the challenges and limitations in coming up with top-down regulations,\" he said, pointing to the recent testimony by the Commodities Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), where the agency's chief stated that rule-making should \"do no harm.\" Selkis added, \"I think they are probably supportive of new technology, provided they are abiding by the spirit of the existing securities and commodities law.\" The pressure he feels, then, is in bringing a truly ecumenical set of voices to the table, a collective powerful enough that new issuers really have to listen, unified around one plan. He explained his deliberate process by saying: \"We're just not in a rush, because I think this is a one-shot deal to get consensus around.\" Disclosure: Ryan Selkis was formerly managing director of CoinDesk.

      "body": "![](https://media.coindesk.com/uploads/2018/02/shutterstock_787786873-860x430.jpg) The startup that oversees development of the world's third most-valuable cryptocurrency, XRP, is moving to upgrade the underlying technology on which it operates. Announced Wednesday, San Francisco-based startup Ripple is releasing two new white papers for peer review - one describing XRP's consensus algorithm in a more formal way and the other outlining a way to improve the diversity of connections of each node, the software users run to relay and verify transactions on the network. Taken together, the moves show that Ripple, whose investors include banks like Santander and SBI, is ready and willing to invest in the core infrastructure supporting its cryptocurrency, which despite falling out of favor with the company at times, now secures more than $40 billion in value. Yet, while XRP has become one of the most in-demand crypto assets, in some ways its development has lagged behind other more established offerings like bitcoin and ether. Indeed, Ripple CTO Stefan Thomas sought to portray the papers as a step towards developing a tighter relationship between the company's research arm and academia. In short, the startup wants it to be easier for researchers to follow Ripple's technology, so its easier for them to contribute. In interview, Thomas sought to stress how the papers open up the possibility of further building a network effect around the tech - one that might be key now that traders are buying in. Thomas told CoinDesk: \"This is the first time we're releasing peer-reviewed academic papers. Obviously, it opens the door for future research. After this, I expect you'll hear much more about us interacting with academia.\" More broadly, the papers can be seen as perhaps the first attempt in some time for the company to refresh and improve documentation around the open-source platform. (The work is the first since 2014 to detail the XRP Ledger, then called the Ripple Consensus Ledger.) As such, the papers are also a statement on the continuing evolution of Ripple, which after launching with the goal of repurposing cryptocurrency into a secure payments network is seeking to replace centralized bank messaging and liquidity services with decentralized alternatives. Playing defenseFor Thomas, however, the two releases have one central theme: security. \"What we're trying to do here is add some defenses against some unlikely attack scenarios. Basically, it says you can't completely manipulate the entire network,\" he explained. The key word here is \"unlikely.\" Thomas argues these attack vectors aren't viable unless the attacker was a state actor, say the U.S. government, with enough money and technological resources to disrupt the network. And though he isn't particularly worried about this happening, Thomas said the startup is trying to protect against those use cases anyway. \"We're extremely cautious. We want the best security,\" he added. The first paper, called \"Analysis of the XRP Ledger Consensus Protocol\" builds on the company's 2014 paper, providing a formal, mathematical proof that what's supposed to happen on the network will really happen. It boils down to two things: \"safety,\" that the network won't fork into two competing networks, and \"liveness,\" that the network won't get stuck and will keep processing transactions. The second paper, \"Cobalt: BFT Governance in Open Networks\" seeks to improve on previous XRP plans with an algorithm that supports a richer array of validators. You can think of XRP as kind of like a voting system, where each node storing Ripple's transaction history gets a vote on what happens next. To help it accomplish this, each node in Ripple carries something called a Unique Node List (UNL), a list of nodes on the Ripple network that the node considers legitimate. So, if each node is connecting to a better variety of nodes, the argument goes, that's good for the long-term resiliency and decentralization of the network. Both papers draw heavily on distributed systems, a body of computer science research describing how large connected networks function. And because they're more theoretical, Thomas stressed these papers will likely have a longer-term impact. \"It's not going to affect how users use XRP right now. They won't experience any downtime or anything,\" he said. One step behindStill, it will remain to be seen if Ripple's developments, including these papers, are enough to allay criticisms of Ripple and its arguably hot-and-cold relationship with XRP. It's worth noting there are some who have been skeptical of its tech from the beginning, and that these criticisms have only grown as XRP has seen more attention. Critics are often supporters of other blockchains, like bitcoin or ethereum, which seek to use decentralization in a different way. (Some even going as far as to argue the technology \"serves no purpose\" as an alternative to today's global, financial technology.) Thomas, though, is unfazed by these negative assessments. In statements, he sought to position critics as out of touch, while remarking that the nature of the technology is that it can improve and respond to market needs. \"Critics are always one step behind,\" Thomas told CoinDesk. \"When I started at Ripple, all sorts of things didn't happen. It wasn't open-source, we didn't have validators, but over time it's grown and we've been able to accomplish all of these things.\" In this way, Thomas sees the papers as just another way Ripple is responding to market needs, whether that's ensuring it's providing an alternative to SWIFT or that its cryptocurrency is secure. As Thomas views it, curbing centralization of validation is what they're working on next, even going as far as to argue that Ripple will be \"far more decentralized\" than bitcoin in the future.

      "body": "![](https://media.coindesk.com/uploads/2018/02/cash-register-860x430.jpg) Call it a slow start. A plan to launch a new cryptocurrency by forking the litecoin blockchain went off without a technical hitch over the weekend, but at press time, the market isn't exactly embracing the new coin. Currently trading at just $5 on a little over $1 million in volume, litecoin cash (LCC) is valued at just 2 percent of the price of the official litecoin project, the world's fifth-largest cryptocurrency and one of the few to see nearly $1 billion in volume Thursday. The lackluster pricing follows what had been a notable start as far as the price action is concerned. LCC opened at around $1.40 and surged to $9.25 on Feb. 20, which amounts to a 560 percent rise, according to data service CoinCodex (one of the few to yet offer data on the project). Even litecoin benefited from the move, surging as investors sought to lock in holdings before litecoin cash cloned its blockchain and offered free coins to litecoin holders. However, despite this built-in audience, no major exchange has yet announced support for LCC. As of now, it is listed only on YoBit, while other exchanges mentioned by litecoin cash website, Mercatox exchange and Trade Satoshi exchange, have not yet formally integrated the cryptocurrency. It appears the team's naming choice has ended up being its biggest drawback. Litecoin creator Charlie Lee emerged as an early critic, with even litecoin cash developers admitting to CoinDesk the choice of name is meant to be a publicity lightning rod. (The use of \"cash\" recalls \"bitcoin cash,\" a fork of bitcoin that came amidst a deep divide among users over the project's technical roadmap). As profiled by CoinDesk, Lee sought to accuse the cryptocurrency's team of willfully benefitting from market confusion, and few in the wider industry seemed to disagree, noting that litecoin does not have a similar vision over its technical roadmap with large numbers of users seeking to leave the network. All in all, the 24-hour trading volume for litecoin cash, down from $5.6 million earlier in the week, is quite low in this context, taking into account the kind of attention it received across the wires ahead of the fork. Only time will tell if LCC will rub shoulders with crypto market leaders or go the bitcoin gold way (another bitcoin fork that seems to have found little love in the investor community).

So far, Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro has claimed that the country had collected a whopping $735 million during the first day of its presale for the new cryptocurrency. In spite of a lack of proof, the claim came amid a splashy, nationally-televised broadcast where Maduro himself declared that the country has \"taken a giant step into the 21st century.\" Venezuela's government first unveiled the petro back in December, setting up a dedicated government agency to oversee the development of the project and build up an ecosystem for it within the South American nation. In anticipation of the sale, the government published a white paper, a buyer's guide and, most recently, newly crafted rules for creating cryptocurrency exchanges within Venezuela. The initiative has sparked a range of tweets in support - and in opposition - to the idea, buoyed by a dedicated hashtag, #AlFuturoConElPetro (which translates to \"to the future with the petro\"). For instance, one advocate tweeted, \"The new economic era for Venezuela begins. The newborn criptomoneda called el petro has many challenges ahead, but its armoring will be the potential for the progressive regularization of the economy.\" Perhaps unsurprisingly, members of the country's National Assembly - which is controlled by political parties in opposition to Maduro - have blasted the move, including in statements issued just hours after Tuesday's broadcast event. Among those taking a public stance against the petro is Marialbert Barrios, a National Assembly deputy who asked: \"Who in their right mind buys a [cryptocurrency] from a government that does not pay the foreign debt, with an economy in hyperinflation?\" ¡Ahora van a querer pagar las deudas con \"petros\"! para tratar de darle vida a ese invento que en verdad es una emisión de deuda externa sin autorización de la @AsambleaVE. ¡Cuidado con los vendedores de humo! \\-- Marialbert Barrios (@MarialbertBs) February 21, 2018 The pushback from the Assembly comes amid an acute political standoff between opposition forces and the Maduro government. According to Reuters, opposition parties are expected to boycott an upcoming presidential election in April, which they argue is rigged in Maduro's favor. Deputy Rafael Guzman called the cryptocurrency \"fraudulent,\" reiterating past arguments that it will fuel illegal activity. \"[The] petro is a fraudulent, illegal and invalid mechanism for the government to continue its shady business and money laundering, because it is not known where those resources will come from,\" he wrote. Base of supportIn contrast with the denunciations from the opposition-controlled Assembly, various offices within the Venezuelan government have used their social media presences to boost agencies that promote the petro. Among those is SENIAT, Venezuela's tax and revenue authority, which claimed that residents can use the petro to pay their tax liabilities, among other things. El Petro será canjeable por dinero fiduciario y otros criptoactivos a través de casas de cambio digitales. El Estado aceptará el pago de impuestos, obligaciones, tasas, contribuciones y servicios públicos nacionales en Petro. #AlFuturoConElPetro pic.twitter.com/80puSYsmbb \\-- SENIAT (@SENIAT_Oficial) February 21, 2018 \"The state will accept the payment of national taxes, duties, fees, contributions and public services in petro,\" the agency wrote. Mariana Ribera of Infocentros, which operates a network of IT centres throughout Venezuela, also celebrated the move on Twitter. \"This initiative, this new South, gives us an endless range of options and opportunities in the national and international market, opening new Horizons that have no limits,\" she wrote. Other tweets in support of the move include those from the Venezuelan consulates in Hong Kong and Vancouver. Maduro's official Twitter account has seen a number of related posts in the past day, including one from Wednesday afternoon that played back footage from Tuesday's broadcast. Estamos dando un paso gigante hacia la nueva economía y el futuro. ¡Sintámonos orgullosos del nacimiento del Petro! En los meses que están por venir, el Pueblo tiene una cita con la prosperidad... Con la victoria. #AlFuturoConElPetro pic.twitter.com/G7S1XoVSQt \\-- Nicolás Maduro (@NicolasMaduro) February 21, 2018 Local bitcoiners raise concernsYet, turning back to the opposition, politicians in Venezuela aren't the only ones pushing back against the idea. While the skepticism voiced by Venezuelan opposition lawmakers could be seen through the lens of the ongoing political crisis in the country, the critiques put forward by members of the local bitcoin and cryptocurrency community are more nuanced and focused on the fact that the Maduro government will likely wield significant control over the cryptocurrency it's creating. In a post on a local Facebook group, one commentator wrote that it is \"really worrying\" that the government would exercise such a large degree of control, especially considering the wide-reaching push for people to start using it. The fear, he said, is that the government will have \"the absolute power to manipulate and adulterate the blockchain at will over petro.\" Others aruged the petro isn't much of a decentralized cryptocurrency at all. \"That's what makes the petro a debt bond and not a crypto in itself, plus the danger of these guys behind that project,\" one community member wrote. Yet another observer offered a broader take, posting in the Facebook thread: \"Tyranny is that: [a] monopoly of power in the hands of a political class that only cares about its space.\" Editor's Note: Statements in this report have been translated from Spanish.

He represents companies and individuals in civil and criminal proceedings.  With the rise and rise of initial coin offerings (ICOs), much attention has been paid to how the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and federal prosecutors view this innovation. And rightfully so, as those enforcement systems carry stiff penalties and even the potential for jail. But investors and companies should also know that buyers can sue sellers privately under the federal securities laws based on similar theories. Sellers should know about these laws to understand the risks they face, and buyers should know their remedies if treated unfairly. I wrote this article a few years ago about how to identify whether a coin is a security (back when we were calling ICOs \"token pre-sales\"), and the bottom line is that it can be tricky. The important thing to know, however, is that if an ICO does constitute a security offering, then federal law requires that the seller register the security or find an exception. Failure to do so can result in SEC enforcement or criminal sanction. But here's what not everyone realizes: the Securities and Exchange Act of 1933 says that a person who buys an unregistered security can sue the seller on his own to get his money back. That's important for a number of reasons. First, it means that the SEC and the Department of Justice are not the only parties who can allege that an ICO is a securities offering. Some argue these days that there have been so many ICOs and that the SEC is so understaffed that it will never bring enforcement actions against the vast majority of sellers. But this doesn't mean a private party won't sue. And if a private person does, it is not the SEC, but a judge who decides if the ICO was a securities offering. Second, the private right of action is important because the remedy is to entirely unwind the original sale. That means that a company that raised $15 million in its ICO might have to give every penny (satoshi?) back to its buyers, even if it has since spent much of what it raised. That kind of outcome is also made possible by federal class action rules, which allow one person to sue on behalf of all of the people who bought a particular security. When the money's goneWhat about the blood-from-a-turnip problem? That is, how do you get money back from a company that has since spent it or moved it elsewhere? Things were bad enough during the Great Depression that the drafters thought of that, too. The 1933 Act provides for personal liability for those who control a company that sells an unregistered security. So the ordinary protections of the corporate form don't necessarily apply. The bad news for buyers (and the good news for sellers) is that the time in which a private party must sue is very short. The statute of limitations for this particular violation is only one year from the date of sale, and claims beyond that time are barred. Buyers and sellers should also know, however, that this is not the end of the story. The securities laws provide additional causes of action for misstatements that a seller makes when selling a security. Likewise, other state and federal laws provide remedies for the same under general fraud statutes. And even if an ICO does not constitute a sale of a security, those same laws generally provide for remedies if the seller made material misstatements to induce the sale. So, wherever the SEC ends up on ICOs, investors and sellers should be aware of this broader legal landscape, either to protect their businesses or to help vindicate their rights.

      "body": "![](https://media.coindesk.com/uploads/2018/02/boar-860x430.jpg) Two board members of the Switzerland-based Tezos Foundation, including its president Johann Gevers, have stepped down from their positions. The pair will be replaced by Tezos community member Ryan Jesperson - who will take over Gevers' role as president of the board - and researcher Michel Mauny. The new members will join the recently-appointed Lars Haussmann as \"the Foundation is preparing itself to assist in the timely launch of the Tezos network,\" according to a statement released Thursday. Haussmann, who joined the board late last month, replaced Guido Schmitz-Krummacher, who reportedly stepped down in December. Gevers said he was \"happy\" with the changes in a post on Twitter: TEZOS ACHIEVES IMPORTANT MILESTONEAfter months of very hard work under extremely difficult conditions, I'm very happy that we've achieved a good resolution that optimally serves the interests of the Tezos project and the wider crypto ecosystem.https://t.co/4CubtKbcgf \\-- Johann Gevers (@johanngevers) February 22, 2018 During his last few months with the foundation, Gevers battled Tezos founders Arthur and Kathleen Breitman over a contract dispute. The Breitmans claimed Gevers drew up his own contract, granting himself excessive compensation in the process, while Gevers claimed his character was being attacked. Because of the dispute, the funds raised to support Tezos project last year - worth $232 million at then-current prices - have effectively been in limbo since the fall. As reported earlier this month, the situation deepened when Jesperson launched an alternative organization - called the T2 Foundation - in a bid to take over the funds around three weeks ago. Mauny is also a member of that group. Jesperson had planned to ask the Swiss authority which oversees such organizations to grant him the legal authority to disburse the funds Tezos raised during its token sale. In the midst of the dispute, investors filed four different class-action lawsuits against both the Tezos Foundation and Dynamic Ledger Solutions, Inc., the Breitman-owned company that holds the intellectual property tied to Tezos.
