    1/ BREAKING: The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has just filed a brief in the @coinbase v. SEC case, calling out the SEC for acting "unlawfully" in the digital asset space. This is The U.S. Chamber of Commerce--not the Chamber of Digital Commerce. This is a Big Deal. Here's why...

    In an aggressive move, @binance has gone on offense against the SEC in the federal court case. Lawyers for the @binance defendants have filed a motion accusing the SEC of engaging in unethical conduct. This is a big deal. Let me explain...

    Here’s me--blowing the lid off the phony “$250 Million Bond” for SBF. If this gets enough attention, maybe the judge would reconsider the lenient bail terms. Hats off to @CoinDesk for having the guts to print it. coindesk.com/consensus-maga…

    SEC v. @coinbase update We now have the transcript of the pre-motion conference held on Thursday. Things went worse for the SEC than was initially reported. The Judge explicitly aligned herself with Coinbase on a key argument. That is unusual for a first appearance. More...

    Because I worked as a securities lawyer for 30 years representing Wall Street firms... People ask me: "What is likely to happen to Sam Bankman-Fried?" And I say, I have seen this movie before. In 2011. It was called the "MF Global Scandal."

    BREAKING: SEC sues @coinbase The SEC alleges that Coinbase has acted as an illegal unregistered securities exchange since 2019. But, In April of 2021, the SEC approved Coinbase going public with a listing on NASDAQ. And, In May of 2021, SEC Chairman Gary Gensler testified

    1/ If the SEC follows through on its threat to sue @coinbase, I believe the SEC will lose. The SEC's case has a fatal flaw. And the problem is entirely of @GaryGensler's own making. Let me explain...

    If the @SEC were to deny all spot $BTC ETFs, the applicants would immediately sue and the D.C. Court of Appeals would again rule that the SEC was “arbitrary & capricious.” The SEC gave every reason they had for denying Grayscale—and lost. I expect multiple approvals on Jan. 10.

    1/ The stakes just keep getting higher for the ruling in SEC v. @Ripple. Here's why. If Judge Torres rules that $XRP tokens trading on secondary markets are Not Securities--it would undermine the entire basis for the SEC's case against @coinbase and much of the @binance case.

    I just read the full statement from Coinbase's top lawyer about the Wells Notice from the SEC. The thing that immediately jumps out is this: Coinbase (very reasonably) asked the SEC staff to tell them which specific tokens the SEC contends are securities. The SEC refused to

    Coinbase received a Wells notice from the SEC. After years of asking for reasonable crypto rules, we're disappointed that the SEC is considering courts over constructive dialogue. But if courts are required, so be it. We'll defend the rule of law. 1/15 coinbase.com/blog/we-asked-…

    BREAKING: SEC and @binance agree on Order securing U.S. customer assets. I would put this in the win column for the @binance defendants. The consent order is very close to what Binance offered to the SEC at the outset. The important thing is--this is a consent decree and not
