In the second part of this week’s episode we move beyond what our past adventures to a discussion on the present and future of crowdfunding. Here we speculate wildly on what is taking the SEC so long (and why that may not be a bad thing in the long run), what might happen once the regulations are put forward, and why Congress might just write the thing themselves. We also discuss the potential problems with how the SEC and FINRA may come down on the regulations.

Note: the Mark Mohler article I mentioned, while it has a more pessimistic view than we do on the SEC’s regulation, is a well thought-out and serious piece and absolutely worth a read.
