6. SEC Releases Guidance on Proof-of-Work Mining

The U.S. SEC has released a statement on "certain proof-of-work mining activities" as part of its efforts to provide greater clarity on the application of federal securities laws in the cryptocurrency space. The Division of Corporation Finance expressed its views on certain activities conducted on proof-of-work (PoW) networks, referred to as "mining." The statement specifically addresses the mining of crypto assets closely related to the programmatic functions of public, permissionless networks, which are obtained for participating in or due to participation in the network's consensus mechanism, or for maintaining or due to maintaining the technical operation and security of the network. In this statement, we refer to these crypto assets as "Covered Crypto Assets," and their mining activities on proof-of-work networks as "Protocol Mining." Section 2(a)(1) of the Securities Act and Section 3(a)(10) of the Exchange Act define the term "security" by enumerating various financial instruments (including "stocks," "notes," and "bonds"). Since Covered Crypto Assets do not constitute any of the financial instruments explicitly listed in the definition of "security," our analysis of certain transactions involving Covered Crypto Assets in the context of Protocol Mining is based on the "investment contract" test established in the SEC v. W.J. Howey Co. case (Howey Test). The "Howey Test" is used to analyze arrangements or instruments not explicitly mentioned in the statutory terms above, based on their "economic reality." -Original
