Show highlights:

the enforcement action against Ooki DAO and the CFTC’s arguments behind it
whether bZx’s statements that the DAO would be beyond the reach of regulators made it a target for the CFTC
whether the broader implication of these charges could mean that all DeFi is illegal
whether the hacks of bZx made it a high-profile target
the CFTC Commissioner Summer Mersinger's dissenting statement and her concerns
who the targets of the CFTC enforcement action are
the consequences of the lawsuit for token holders and how to determine which token holders are liable
why the CFTC chose to post a notice in the Ooki DAO forum and whether that is sufficient notice
what the next steps for DAO members are and whether there will be wide community support
