Are NFTs even legal?

Drum roll please... we finally found a crypto lawyer!

This week, we sat down with Cryptones, a Twitter friend and securities lawyer – or so we hope. (Slight disclaimer, we have no way to verify that he's actually a lawyer because, in true crypto bro fashion, he's anon.) Regardless, we had a long and fascinating convo about our burning securities questions, the Howey Test, and whether NFTs in their current form will even be legal five years from now. Be sure to follow him on Twitter, @cryptonesy. 

Also in this episode: A brief explainer on what happened with UST/Terra/Luna (aka, headlines you may have seen related to the crypto market crash). We will have more in-depth conversations on this to come in the following weeks, so stay tuned.
