What it bears on
R1Can we hold and administer this the way we hold everything else?
available
Qualified custody, fund administration and in-kind creation are available from named providers under existing mandates.
R3Do we know what this instrument is, legally, in every venue we operate?
needs design
ETH is a digital commodity in the United States and stablecoin law is in force. Market-structure legislation stalled, and jurisdictions are diverging.
R6Who is the counterparty when there is no counterparty?
needs design
An ownerless system meeting procurement built for vendors. Six organisations can take your first call, and our own unincorporated status is part of this problem, not outside it.
