The Smile

Cutouts

This is their second album this year. This one feels like an extension of their first self titled album, but branches into a psychedelic landscapes. It's some great rainy day coffeehouse music. Thom still sounds as good as ever.

Another Class Action Against Block.​One Alleges Dirty Dealings During EOS ICO

Per a May 18 complaint, more investors are looking to recoup funds invested in the record-breaking initial coin offering for EOS — which netted a total of $4 billion in cryptocurrency. Lawyers for the plaintiffs are calling over $200 million of that money illegally raised. 

Conflict with U.S. securities law and investors

The complaint alleges that EOS was an unregistered security offering by block.one. Block.one is the development firm that spearheaded the ICO for EOS, which many saw as a form of investment in the company. 

Language in the purchase agreements in EOS’s pre-sale told investors in the United States not to participate in the fundraising round. This was an effort to avoid conflict with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Block.one did not register the offering in the U.S., neither as a security nor under exemptions from securities registration, so they leaned on their measures to skip out on U.S. investors entirely as their means of compliance with the U.S. regulator.

However, some U.S. investors indeed participated in the ICO, and block.one ended up encountering the SEC anyway. In September, block.one settled with the commission for $24 million. 

New allegations of actively courting investors

The new complaint alleges that the firm — which has offices in Hong Kong and Blacksburg, Virginia — knowingly and deliberately sought U.S. investors:

“From 2017 through the present, to drive demand for EOS Securities, Defendants have aggressively courted investors throughout the United States. Block.one first announced itself at a May 2017 conference in New York City, and punctuated its arrival with expensive ad space on a Times Square billboard.”

On the subject of how much investment actually came from the U.S., James Koutoulas, one of the lawyers for the plaintiffs, told Cointelegraph that they were “estimating bare minimum 200M in US losses.”

The complaint further dismisses block.one’s claims to be working towards decentralization as falsehoods.

However, that does not seem to be the end of the story. Early in April, law firm Roche Cyrulnik Freedman filed a rash of class-action suits against a number of crypto firms including block.one, based on similar allegations. The two cases will likely have to compete to be appointed lead counsel — effectively, leadership over the class.

Cointelegraph reached out to block.one’s legal team but had received no response as of press time. This article will be updated if a response comes in.

The Smile

The Wall Of Eyes

====

The band of Thom Yorke, Jonny Greenwood, and Tom Skinner. I've been waiting a long time for this album as Radiohead is one of my favorite bands and I'm highly critical of anything Thom puts out. Their single "Wall Of Eyes" was released last year that I've been listening to on repeat for a while. It feels like much of the production is leading this with Thom playing backup for many of the tracks. There is also some different musical influences spaced throughout each track from jazz, dream-pop which makes this incredibly easy on the ears. I'll be continuing to listen to this album as you can tell it's very complex; I just wish it moved me a bit more like Radiohead albums do.

Hans Zimmer

Dune Part Two (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)

====

Has the same consistent Epic theme as the first movie (as it should). It's a small incremental tweak as to what he previously did. I listened to a breakdown of 'A Time of Quiet Between the Storms' and it's pretty remarkable. It's definitely an all-time track from Hans.
