According to a report by Golden Finance, and disclosed by Forbes reporter Eleanor Terrett, page 49 of the new market structure discussion draft in the House aims to clarify that transactions involving the sale of digital commodities do not constitute securities, as long as the buyer does not gain ownership rights in the issuer's business, profits, or assets. In other words, if you are buying and selling digital commodities in the secondary market, rather than purchasing directly from the issuer, then unless that sale grants you some form of ownership or a claim to the company's profits or assets, it will not automatically trigger U.S. securities law.
