Since the operation's launch, NASAA has issued 46 enforcement actions.<\/p>\n<p>In the official press release, NASAA President and Alabama Securities Commission Director Joseph P. Borg stated:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;State and provincial securities regulators are committing significant regulatory resources to protect investors from financial harm involving fraudulent ICOs and cryptocurrency-related investment products and also are raising awareness among industry participants of their regulatory responsibilities.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<figure id=\"attachment_76624\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-76624\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-76624\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/crypto-airdrops-sec-hammer-social-300x158.jpg\" alt=\"Cryptocurrency Airdrops and Bounty Campaigns Face SEC Hammer\" width=\"300\" height=\"158\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-76624\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Related:\u00a0<a title=\"Cryptocurrency Airdrops and Bounty Campaigns Face SEC Hammer\" href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/cryptocurrency-airdrops-and-bounty-campaigns-face-sec-hammer\/\">Cryptocurrency Airdrops and Bounty Campaigns Face SEC Hammer<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Borg mentioned that many of the enforcement actions taken against ICOs involved securities fraud but also included &#8220;failure to properly register a product before it was offered to investors.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Other common breaches in securities regulation include fraudulent marketing tactics, phishing scams and fabricated ICO projects.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u00a0\u201cWhile not every ICO or cryptocurrency-related investment is a fraud, it is important for individuals and firms selling these products to be mindful that they are not doing so in a vacuum; state and provincial laws or regulations may apply, especially securities laws. Sponsors of these products should seek the advice of knowledgeable legal counsel to ensure they do not run afoul of the law.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In the press release, NASAA urges companies to do &#8220;their own thorough due diligence&#8221; before offering cryptocurrency-related investment products or launching an ICO. NASAA states that even registered securities offerings can still be fraudulent.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cBe cautious when dealing with promoters who claim their ICO offering is exempt from securities registration but do not ask about your income, net worth or level of investing sophistication.
