Listen "Episode 18: Rebutting Prometheum"
Episode Synopsis
If you want early fireworks before the 4th tomorrow, listen to last week’s Unchained Podcast where Laura Shin “interviewed” Aaron Kaplan, co-CEO of Prometheum, and Paradigm Special Counsel Rodrigo Seira. I put “interview” in quotes because it’s more like she refereed a prize fight. Listen to that before you listen to this, then come back here and hear why Aaron’s arguments don’t hold much water.Key Points From This Episode:Reg D is an issuer exemption.What’s Rule 144 and why is it hard to apply in the context of digital assets?Why Prometheum can’t fulfill its mission to protect investors (hint: because it has none…because it has no tokens to list).Disclaimer:This show is for informational purposes only.
