🌿 Commodity vs Security | What's the Difference?
The key difference between a commodity and a security is their nature and how they are regulated.
A commodity is usually a raw material or primary product such as oil, gold, wheat, etc., that one can buy, sell, or trade. They usually have a market price determined by supply and demand and are regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).
A security is a financial instrument such as stocks, bonds or options which represent an ownership position in a publicly traded corporation (stock), a creditor relationship with a governmental body or a corporation (bond), or rights to ownership as represented by an option.
Securities are subject to more stringent regulatory requirements and standards enforced by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to ensure transparency and protect investors.
Today the SEC's motion for interlocutory appeal in the case they lost against Ripple $XRP was turned down by a US judge. This is a clear message to the regulator that their attempt to “regulate through persecution” is overreaching and that they can not label every digital asset a security
The evolving regulatory landscape in the US and around the globe is challenging for teams working in decentralized finance but there is an opportunity to create fundamentally better products and services.
