I'm pretty sure this is illegal. Covalent is inducing Americans to buy a security and guaranteeing them from losses, both regulated activities.
The culture around cryptocurrencies can be a little insular – so we're sharing our onboarding guide that teaches you to buy cryptocurrencies step-by-step. I think it's broadly applicable regardless of what you think about the viability of crypto.
