SEC chair says system used by Ethereum following software update could trigger securities laws. Literally published on day 1 of the fork/merge. I have been saying this for over 6 years that POW to POS transitions can draw regulatory attention. wsj.com/articles/ether…
To be clear, I am not saying that ETH is necessarily a security because of its proof model, but regulators do talk about staking in the context of dividends which if one feature of what securities laws call a "common enterprise". There are other factors in the Howey test too.
I believe that more discourse is necessary among regulators in the U.S. (SEC, CFTC, OCC) and market participants to determine and build a fair, objective and sustainable framework for token categorization and market structure that's necessary to operate businesses in the space.

@vaneck_us 2/ Monetary value is value that exists in spite of an economic good not having intrinsic value or value that exists in excess of an economic good’s intrinsic value. Historically, most objects of monetary value have no relationship to a sovereign entity.(eg: gold, gemstones, etc.)
@vaneck_us 3/ Bitcoin’s combination of durability, scarcity, privacy, and its nature as a trust-minimized bearer asset all contribute to it holding monetary value. Bitcoin has the potential to become “digital gold”.
