Jason Somer Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

All investors should be allowed to buy cryptocurrency instruments of any kind without any special accreditation. Investments should not be limited to an elite aristocracy, arbitrarily determined by government agencies. The risks of cryptocurrency are well-documented and available to all potential investors. Many cryptocurrencies have demonstrated their use-cases, and as an asset class it is entirely appropriate to allocated to them as a sound portfolio strategy. Bitcoin, in particular, is currently acting as perhaps the sole hedge against geopolitical risk worldwide.

Ray Vinton Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

Dear SEC: I am heavily invested in multiple crypto currencies because I have no confidence in the dollar, the U.S. Government and the regulatory agencies. The administration has orchestrated the prosecution of an avoidable and preventable war in the Ukraine which has married Russia to China on their economies and has resulted in a weakening of the dollar as the world's main trading currency. The U.S. dollar, a fiat currency, grows lesser and lesser in value every day.

It is my preference to invest as I choose. Limiting rights to invest in various investment vehicles made available only to a select few is un-American. Current rules regarding being or not being accredited investors are sufficient to protect investors without new restrictions being added as you are proposing. Please resist the urge to do so; especially if the restrictions you are choosing to add do not impose restrictions on you that you would now be imposing on others. Richard Robinson
