Just wondering if you live in the US? Apparently residents of the US can not purchase the EOS tokens. See https://eos.io/faq.html question 17. I hoped to be involved in this ICO but it looks like I will have to find another way to buy tokens, since I am a US resident.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
That is to protect them from the SEC and really has nothing to do with US Citizens having the right to acquire the tokens by unofficial means. If someone other than the development team will sell you the token then ti doesn't matter. If you are sneaky enough to use VPNs and get around it then the EOS team at least didn't authorize you.
IP filtering or just asking them if they are a US citizen is a way to protect the issuer from SEC regulation.
Thanks for the explanation!
