In April 2025, the State of Oregon filed a lawsuit against Coinbase, reigniting debates about whether digital assets like XRP, Solana, and Cardano are securities. Despite the SEC backing off earlier this year, Oregon stepped forward, labeling over 30 crypto tokens as unregistered securities under state law. For many, this seems like another regulatory tug-of-war, but for those paying attention, it’s much more significant.
The Real Stakes: Not Just Crypto, But Control
On the surface, Oregon’s complaint is regulatory, focusing on:
- Investor protections
- State law compliance
- Exchange oversight
But beneath the surface, it’s about control.
The established financial structure—steeped in bureaucracy and centralization—fears:
- Decentralization
- Transparency
- Loss of control over the systems that often enslave more than empower
If we continue to let centralized regulators dictate:
- What assets you’re “allowed” to own
- What systems you can use
- What rights you may exercise
We move toward a digitally enforced form of slavery, replacing natural freedoms with conditional permissions. Centralized digital ID systems could be weaponized against those they claim to protect.
The Digital World: A Peaceful Exit from a Broken System
The Digital World steps in—not as rebellion, but as a visionary alternative, founded on:
- Sovereignty in digital jurisdiction
- Private membership
- Self-sovereign identity
- Decentralized trust
It operates independently from centralized regulators and offers:
- The freedom to transact, invest, and grow in alignment with natural law, private property, and human liberty
Where Oregon sees “securities,” The Digital World sees:
- DGOLD: Digital receipts backed by physical gold (accessible to any member)
- Digital Corporations (DCORPs): Formed under Reg D compliance, with transparent ownership
- Reputation Scores: Verified through decentralized trust, not credit surveillance
Lawsuits Highlight the Need for Change
The Oregon case shows why decentralized systems are not just useful— they are necessary.
This lawsuit demonstrates how access to the future can be blocked by the misaligned present. This isn’t just about XRP—it’s about everyone’s right to transact, invest, and build. When a single state can wield outdated laws against innovation, the system’s cracks become impossible to ignore.
The centralized financial world is an aging empire: still powerful, but fading among those who are building new ways to live, work, and connect.

A Fork in the Road
Humanity faces a choice:
- Centralized path: Deeper dependence on corporate/state digital systems that monitor, limit, and enslave.
- Decentralized path: Freedom, truth, transparency, and real association—as members, builders, and stakeholders.
This lawsuit is more than a regulatory move. It’s a signpost:
Either we reclaim our digital sovereignty, or we surrender our natural rights to systems built to control.
The Digital World is building a path forward.
