Fresh newsletter. I was curious how the SEC’s recent PoW mining guidance might abstract to PoS staking, so I did a deep dive. I think there is a reasonably strong argument to extrapolate here, especially in light of the SEC’s dismissal of the Coinbase and Consensys cases. https://open.substack.com/pub/broganlaw/p/so-is-staking-legal-now?r=487bq2&utm_medium=ios

STABLE would require payment stablecoin issuers to back stablecoins w/ liquid reserve assets on at least a 1:1 basis, disclose reserve asset info, and comply with the BSA and rules relating to capital, liquidity, and risk-management. Issuers could not pay interest or yield to stablecoin holders.
