The situation in the U.S. creates a paradox for cryptocurrency projects: they require tech-savvy American talent yet must navigate the strictest financial regulations globally. A nuanced approach to compliance is essential.
Some in the industry show a selective approach to compliance, exemplified by projects like Renzo and Ether.Fi, which attempted to exclude U.S. residents from airdrops even though participants managed to bypass these restrictions.
This hypocrisy is fueled by the nature of risk; receiving airdrops entails minimal risk for individuals, while the stakes rise significantly if someone faces regulatory scrutiny.
Despite claiming to avoid U.S. jurisdiction, many cryptocurrency projects still benefit from the American market and talent, but this balancing act often leads to contradictory practices in token distribution.
