If that's all it is, how can they possibly make statements like "every ICO so far looks like a security"? Now they're on to the "substance over form" angle. We are left guessing, meanwhile facing threats over possible past mind-reading failures.
They’ve always been clear that it’s substance over form. Can you share an example or two of a potential “mind reading failure” where an ICO substantively does not look like a security but you’re concerned it will be deemed as such?

Problem is the bar for substance is subjective, and they have said every ICO looks like a security so we have to wonder about them all, despite our own strong assessment.
