Aki Network has recently updated its whitepaper to include its new functions and features for its AKI token.

As a multi-utility token, the updates to the paper include the incorporation of priority participation rights for holders to join large-scale events, increased probability for users to secure prizes, and expanded opportunities for community members to participate in the community jury.

The whitepaper goes on to extensively disquality it as a security, likely foreseeing potential problems with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Originating in Japan, Aki Network has built quite an online presence, with nearly 400,000 social media followers.
