Conforme relatado anteriormente pela Bitnation, o A SEC processou a Coinbase em junho 6, alegando que a empresa de cripto tem operado como bolsa de valores, câmara de compensação e corretora sem registrar seus serviços no regulador. A agência afirmou no processo que cerca de 13 criptomoedas vendidas pela exchange são consideradas títulos pela iit, incluindo Polygon (MATIC), Solana (SOL), Cardano (ADA) e Filecoin (FIL).
Armstrong added that the lawsuit filed against his company is very “different from others out there,” as it is “exclusively focused on what is or is not a security.”
The Coinbase executive stated that his team is “confident in our facts and the law” while claiming that the US government cannot agree with itself as to which blockchain-based digital asset is a security. He also referred to the SEC and CFTC (Commodity Futures Trading Commission) making conflicting statements regarding the status of ether (ETH) as a security or a commodity.
Armstrong added that he hopes that the lawsuit filed by the SEC against his firm will finally result in clear crypto compliance in the United States. He noted that his company’s previous efforts to get registered with the SEC and comply with its policies failed.
“Instead of publishing a clear rule book, the SEC has taken a regulation by enforcement approach that is harming America. So if we need to avail ourselves of the courts to get clarity, so be it,” Armstrong noted.
