HTMLCOIN partners which would be using the Althash Blockchain may or maybe not be termed as securities based on their use case, HTMLCOIN in no way takes any responsibility and strongly advises the investors to do independent research before investing in any of those tokens/coins.

2. An endorsement of purchasing or exchanging for HTML, the currency;
3. Speculation on the future price or value of HTML, the currency; or

In light of the current developments with regard to Crypto currencies and Securities laws. Some key pointers that needs to be highlighted are: –
1. The currencies can be securities at the time of issuing of their tokens and can become non-security over the period of time depending upon the level of decentralization and HTMLCOIN has always strived to achieving that level of decentralization and keep moving forward in this direction.
2. The HTMLCOIN is a blockchain company and will always maintain the same nature and investors are advised to make independent, researched decision about investing in HTMLCOIN, the currency.
This policy should not be interpreted in any way to prevent a SEC Registered Investment Adviser or other licensed or registered investment professional from rendering their professional opinion or endorsement when that opinion or endorsement is issued with the qualifiers that
1) it is not an official opinion or endorsement from the HTMLCOIN Organizations and
2) that the opinion or endorsement is issued strictly in the professional’s individual or professional capacity and not under color of their affiliation with the HTMLCOIN Organization.
