#USHouseMarketStructureDraft According to Odaily, a new discussion project regarding the market structure of the United States House of Representatives aims to clarify the classification of digital merchandise transactions. As reported by Forbes journalist Eleanor Terrett, the project specifies on page 49 that transactions involving the sale of digital merchandise do not constitute securities, provided they do not confer to the buyer any ownership rights over the business, profits, or assets of the issuer. Essentially, the buying and selling of digital merchandise on the secondary market, rather than directly from the issuer, will not automatically trigger U.S. securities laws, unless the sale confers ownership rights or claims on the profits or assets of the business.
