The Chamber of Digital Commerce, which brings together influential actors in the blockchain industry, filed a brief of amicus curiae in a lawsuit against the US Securities Market Commission (SEC) versus Telegram in the federal court of the Southern District of New York ... The Chamber of Digital Commerce expressed concern about the potential impact of the court decision on the future of the blockchain industry and asked the court to distinguish the subject of an investment contract from the digital asset itself, which requires an analysis of whether the investment contract was offered in a securities transaction and whether the subject of the investment contract is a commodity that could be the subject of a regular commercial transaction. The chamber also asked the court to admit that a digital asset is not always a security just because of its digital form.
