The SEC filed charges against Richard Heart, the operator of Hex, PulseChain, and PulseX. Despite Heart’s best attempts at evading securities laws — including by asking people to “sacrifice” tokens in exchange for PLS and PLSX to avoid using the term “invest” — the SEC says he’s been conducting unregistered securities offerings amounting to more than $1 billion.In addition to the unregistered offerings charge, the SEC alleges Heart and PulseChain misappropriated $12.1 million to fund Heart’s lavish lifestyle. Among other things, he purchased a McLaren sports car, five luxury watches, and a $4.3 million 555-carat black diamond called “Enigma”, allegedly using funds from the sale.
