Could you elaborate on whether or not cryptocurrencies are subject to registration requirements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)? Given the dynamic nature of the cryptocurrency market and the lack of a clear regulatory framework, it's unclear if these digital assets fall under the SEC's jurisdiction. Are there specific criteria that determine if a cryptocurrency should be registered? If so, what are those criteria? Additionally, what are the potential consequences for a cryptocurrency issuer or operator that fails to register with the SEC if required?
