"In Monday tweets, LBRY, Inc. said it had been “killed by legal and SEC debts.” In a followup tweet, the company made clear that it is LBRY Inc that “must die” though the “LBRY protocol and blockchain will continue.”"

  • SEC won the summary judgment against LBRY for not registering their token sale as a security offering (7-11-2022).
  • From Decrypt (30-3-2021):

"The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has charged crypto firm LBRY with selling unregistered securities. According to the SEC before developing the network, it sold the tokens as investment contracts, with the assumption that their value would go up. All told, alleges the SEC in a complaint filed today in a US District Court, "LBRY received more than $11 million in U.S. dollars, Bitcoin, and services from purchasers who participated in its offering. The SEC is seeking a permanent injunction against the company and its employees as well as civil penalties and disgorgement."

Their Other Projects

Roadmap

Decentralize Organization

"LBRY as a protocol is decentralized, but it's organization is still fairly centralized.

While the incentives of the LBRY Inc. are fairly closely aligned with the success of the LBRY protocol itself, they are not necessarily perfectly so.

A community-owned non-profit organization increases stakeholders that care about LBRY and gives a name, place, and framework for anyone who want to build on or with LBRY. It also reduces potential conflicts of interest LBRY may face in terms of community organization and community management.

Success

  1. Launch a separate organization with a seed amount of LBC that is owned by community members of the LBRY protocol.
  2. If successful, create a program for creating more of these, especially for different countries, cultures, or regions."
