Plastic CTO

Securities Law Disclaimer

Last Updated: January 17, 2026
IMPORTANT: $PLASTIC IS NOT A SECURITY, INVESTMENT CONTRACT, OR REGULATED FINANCIAL INSTRUMENT UNDER U.S. FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. THIS DISCLAIMER EXPLAINS THE BASIS FOR THIS POSITION AND MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE GENERAL RISK DISCLAIMER. NOTHING HEREIN CONSTITUTES LEGAL, FINANCIAL, OR INVESTMENT ADVICE.

The PlasticCTO project (“Project”) and the $PLASTIC token are structured as a community-driven, decentralized meme-inspired token on the Solana blockchain, recognized as a Community Takeover (CTO) since December 30, 2025 (approved January 6, 2026). As detailed in the General Risk Disclaimer, the Project operates without central management, with governance, operations, and decisions handled by the community through votes, spaces, moderators (MODs), and decentralized processes. The token is provided on an “as-is” basis for entertainment, social, cultural, and awareness purposes related to environmental themes (e.g., plastic pollution), with no inherent functionality, yield, rights to profits, or promises of value.

Pursuant to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Division of Corporation Finance Staff Statement on Meme Coins (February 27, 2025), typical meme coins—speculative assets inspired by internet culture, memes, or social phenomena—do not constitute securities under federal securities laws. Such tokens are viewed as akin to “collectibles” because they:

Do not generate yield or convey rights to future income, profits, or assets of a business.

Are not common financial instruments (e.g., stock, note, bond) enumerated in the Securities Act of 1933 or Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Do not involve an investment contract under the Howey Test (SEC v. W.J. Howey Co., 328 U.S. 293 (1946)), which requires: (1) an investment of money, (2) in a common enterprise, (3) with a reasonable expectation of profits, (4) derived from the entrepreneurial or managerial efforts of others.

$PLASTIC aligns with this guidance and does not meet the Howey Test criteria for the following reasons:

Any acquisition or holding involves no reasonable expectation of profits from the efforts of promoters, the Doxxed Initial Contributor (@Yerahmeel33 / Yerahmeel), or any centralized party. Value, if any, derives solely from market speculation, community hype, sentiment, and trading activity—not from managerial efforts, business operations, or promises of returns.

Post-CTO, there is no common enterprise managed by promoters or others; governance is fully decentralized and community-led (e.g., MOD team for daily ops, community voting on nonprofit donations).

Merchandise or ancillary products (if offered) are separate retail items for awareness and do not alter the non-securities nature of $PLASTIC or create any investment expectations.

No entrepreneurial or managerial efforts are undertaken to generate value or profits for holders. The Doxxed Initial Contributor has no ongoing role beyond limited custodial access (for transitional/technical purposes only), and all mechanics (fees, rewards, burns, donations) are automated via smart contracts to publicly trackable wallets.

Features like potential SOL incentives for holding are conditional, non-guaranteed technical automations based on network fees—not entitlements, yields, or profit-sharing derived from others’ efforts.

Onboarding and Purchase Guidance: Any educational content, guides, or links on this website to help users learn about cryptocurrency, set up wallets, or access decentralized exchanges (e.g., pump.fun) are provided for informational purposes only. They do not constitute an offer to sell, solicitation to buy, or recommendation regarding $PLASTIC or any crypto asset. Purchases occur directly on third-party platforms at your sole risk and discretion. No representations are made about ease of access, fees, security, or outcomes. Links are not endorsements, and we have no control over or affiliation with those platforms.

Accordingly, the offer, sale, trading, or holding of $PLASTIC does not involve the offer and sale of securities under U.S. federal securities laws. No registration with the SEC is required, and no exemptions from registration are claimed or needed. This position is consistent with SEC staff views on meme coins but is not binding on the Commission or courts; future interpretations, enforcement actions, or regulatory changes could differ.

Regulatory risks remain: Cryptocurrency classifications are evolving globally (e.g., EU MiCA, potential U.S. legislation on digital assets/meme coins). CTO structures and environmental/mission elements may attract scrutiny if mischaracterized. Users must independently verify compliance in their jurisdiction; participation may be restricted or illegal in some areas.

No Personal Liability: The Doxxed Initial Contributor assumes no responsibility for any securities-related claims. By engaging with $PLASTIC or the Project, you irrevocably release and discharge the Doxxed Initial Contributor (Yerahmeel / @Yerahmeel33) and affiliates from all claims, demands, or actions related to securities classification or violations.

Limitation of Liability and Waiver: To the fullest extent permitted by law, all parties disclaim liability for any losses or damages. You waive any right to sue or pursue claims against the Doxxed Initial Contributor personally, including class actions.
