Vikash Mishra Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I am an individual investor who believes a person should not need to go through a special process before being allowed to invest in public securities. To invest is to be aware that markets fluctuate and carry inherent risk -- any serious investor learns this quickly. I should not have to jump through hoops or demonstrate I have an arbitrary net worth before investing in leveraged or inverse funds.

Warren Wright Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I, as an investor should be able to decide where i invest my money so long as the investment is legal, without a regulatory authority deciding if Im competent enough, intelligent enough, and wealthy enough to invest in a certain investment. How hypocritical is it that i can take my entire savings to Vegas and put it on red or black at a roulette table without any oversight from a regulatory authority, but i wouldn't be able buy an ETF that is based on Bitcoin Futures? It really does smell rightlike protecting investors is not the primary concern in passing this proposed regulation.
