There is still a lot of controversy about this, and this is unlikely to have a positive impact on the stability of the cryptocurrency development. Indeed, the cryptocurrency has a lot in common with the securities market. At the same time, it also has significant differences. It's just that the states need to come to a common opinion and approaches on this issue. The sooner this is done, the less damage it will cause to the cryptocurrency.
