These are some of the costs of registering with the SEC or by extension doing business in the United States.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">In order to conduct a successful RegA+ token offering registered and regulated by the SEC, Blockstacks reportedly spent close to 10 months in addition to about $2 million to gain approval from the commission.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The company went on to raise $23 million from its regulated ICO but also attracting the interest of the Asian market investors who contributed $7.6 million of the total raised funds.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><em>\u201cOur goal with the listings on Binance and Hashkey Pro is to increase access to the Blockstack network globally,\u201d Ali said commenting on the two listings. \u201cUsers can now easily acquire Stacks tokens for use on the network.
