“It registers shares for potential resale by earlier investors. The” shares owned by the offer “column is hypothetical, based on the full sale of registered shares. This is standard post-Pipe procedure in Tradfi, not an indication of the actual sale. To clarify, neither Consensys nor I have sold shares.”
This application was not a fire alarm
