    By Margaret A. Dale and Mark D. Harris | August 8, 2017

Harris write: The flurry of recent Initial Coin Offerings have raised questions as to whether, and in what circumstances, virtual currencies and digital tokens may be considered securities whose offer and sale are subject to federal registration requirements. A recent report by the SEC cautioning investors that digital assets may be securities is a turning point for the token marketplace and other blockchain-based mechanisms of alternative fundraising.

    Where Have All of the Initial Public Offerings Gone?

    By Katayun I. Jaffari and Kimberly W. Klayman | August 8, 2017

    On June 29, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) announced that it is permitting all companies to file the paperwork for an initial public offering (an IPO) without immediately disclosing the IPO to the public. Further, companies will be permitted to immediately withdraw an IPO filing. Previously, this "nonpublic review process," known as the "stealth IPO rules," was only available to emerging growth companies. As of July 10, when the so-called "stealth IPO rules" went into effect, all companies, including those that would not be classified as emerging growth companies, have been able to take advantage of a confidential IPO process.
