| When dealing with the American market, know your limits well!
If you're thinking of investing or launching a tech or financial project related to securities in America, you need to know how to deal with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
The SEC does not leave things open; any securities offering (even tokens or crypto) must comply with its laws or obtain a legal exemption.
The idea is not just in intention, but in form and substance—meaning that even if your product is "decentralized" or "smart," it could be classified as a security if there are promises of returns.
The golden advice? Regularly review the SEC guidelines, or consult a lawyer who understands the American market before you start. One legal misstep could save you from huge liability.
Always stay on the safe side—understand, prepare, and work correctly.
