On August 16, the SEC filed a Complaint against Dragonchain, Inc. its affiliated companies and its founder, Joe Roets alleging that they sold unregistered securities. Allegedly,?Dragonchain first raised $1.4 million in a pre-sale of DRGNs to 68 members of a crypto investment club, and in October /November 2017, raised $12.3 million from about 5,000 investors in an initial coin offering. In response to the SEC Wells Notice, Roets proclaimed "I am Joe Roets. I am not a lawyer nor venture capitalist. I am a software engineer, businessman, entrepreneur, husband, father, and patriot." Guest blogger Aegis Frumento Esq. got a chuckle out of Roets response, and the veteran industry lawyer shares his thoughts on how things unfolded.
