First Official DAO in the US To Fight SEC Without Attorneys

The first official decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) in the United States is taking on the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) over its 2021 token registrations.

American CryptoFed DAO has told Cointelegraph it will represent itself without an attorney over SEC allegations that it omitted and misstated information in a securities registration last year.

The DAO registered its native, interdependent stablecoin Ducat and governance token Locke in its 2021 filing with the SEC, but the regulator has begun proceedings to issue a stop order citing a raft of problems with the registration.

Token Evolution: Uncovering Diverse Applications in the Current Digital Landscape

In this collaborative research endeavor, the Global Crypto Research (GCR) and Friends With Benefits (FWB) unite to present a comprehensive examination of Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) tokens and their contemporary landscape. Despite the burgeoning interest and investment in DAO tokens, their utility and application remain constrained by a spectrum of technical, regulatory, and operational challenges.
