SEC Refuses Take Position

Paul Grewal, Chief Legal Officer for Coinbase mentioned that while reviewing a transcript of Binance’s hearing before Judge Jackson, he spotted the US SEC’s puzzling legal strategy.

As per the transcription, the court asked the SEC about the defendants trading tokens that are not considered as securities. So, are the rest of the tokens security or not?

SEC Counsel dodged the question stating that it is reserving its right as they are still at the pleading stage. It is required to get into the discovery phase where a full assessment can be done around the categorisation.

Dogecoin (DOGE) Valued at $25,000,000 Leaves Robinhood Crypto in the Wake of the SEC’s Wells Notice

Tens of millions of dollars worth of the meme asset Dogecoin (DOGE) has left Robinhood Crypto after the firm received a Wells Notice from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). New data from blockchain-tracking platform Bitcoinsensus reveals that 164 million DOGE worth $25 million was transferred out of Robinhood after the firm’s crypto branch received notice that the regulatory agency would be taking enforcement actions against it. A Well Notice is a warning given by the SEC informing an entity that legal action is going to be taken against them, though it is not an indication of any wrongdoing.
