In this video, I discuss how Ethereum may have inadvertently turned itself into a security by moving from proof of work to proof of stake.

Not even 24 hours after the Merge, Gary Gensler has come out swinging, reminding people that staking rewards look a lot like interest income or dividends that are paid by a security.

Here's some advice to crypto projects:

If you want to look more like a commodity, don't have one guy in charge who creates the road map and drives development forward.

And especially don't do that if the new feature that you just added looks a lot like an interest-bearing security. That doesn't look too commodity-like to the SEC.

Not investment advice! Consult a financial advisor.
