  In the context of digital assets, securities refer to any type of digital asset that meets the legal definition of a security. This includes tokens or coins that are offered as investments and are subject to securities regulations. The classification of a digital asset as a security is determined by various factors, such as the purpose of the asset, the manner in which it is offered or sold, and the expectations of profit from the efforts of others. If a digital asset meets these criteria, it is considered a security and is subject to the applicable securities laws and regulations.
