    Do insider trading and market manipulation laws apply to crypto, an unregulated speculative asset? This isn’t rhetorical, I’ve no idea.

      I am also curious. On the one hand, if you tax any gains from it you should also make sure it operates within some legal framework. On the other hand, would anybody investigate a magic bean salesman for insider trading? Would they rather charge them with scamming?
