The venture capital firm a16z Crypto pointed out in a new post aimed at crypto founders: "The good news is that there is now a path for constructive engagement with regulators and legislation that can bring regulatory clarity, and you should all feel empowered to explore all groundbreaking products and services supported by blockchain, including tokens." The post specifically noted that token issuance is an activity that founders can be more confident in: "For many, concerns about regulatory overreach have led to delays in using tokens to allocate project control and build community, but now there should be greater confidence in using tokens as a legitimate, compliant tool for projects." While the article is overall optimistic, the author also noted that some actions may still violate regulatory requirements, advising founders to "continue focusing on eliminating centralized aspects or reliance on trust within their projects, as these areas will continue to be subject to regulatory scrutiny."
