In a nutshell, the GDPR changes being proposed complicate more than they solve practical challenges, create legal incoherences within the EU, and might foster an unintended (or intended) “AI exceptionalism.” The AI industry will love it, as uncertainty, incoherence, and internal instability are the best formula for low/weak legal enforcement</a>

Whales, insiders and flippers shouldn't be the only winners from token launches. We're launching a token sales platform on Coinbase to give teams a new way to distribute their token to their community, and give the community early access to their favorite tokens. And for the first time since 2018, retail users in the United States can widely participate.</a>
