SEC ber domaren att avslå Coinbases yrkande om att avvisa rättegången

• SEC har bett en distriktsdomstol i New York att avslå motionen som lämnats in av Coinbase om att avvisa stämningsansökan från byrån.
• Den betonade återigen det faktum att några av de kryptovalutor som såldes på handelsplattformen var värdepapper.
• The agency’s motion to appeal the decision made by Judge Analisa Torres in the XRP lawsuit has been rejected.
• Torres sa att SEC misslyckades med sin börda att visa att det fanns kontrollerande lagfrågor.

Under de senaste 24 timmarna har United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) fått ett avslag för sitt överklagande i domen i rättegången mot Ripple angående försäljningen av XRP-token. Tillsynsmyndigheten har också bett domaren att avvisa begäran från den största börsen i USA, Coinbase, om att avvisa stämningsansökan som byrån hade lämnat in mot den tidigare i år.

Coinbase had earlier filed a motion asking the court to dismiss the lawsuit filed by the SEC against the crypto exchange. On the other hand, on October 3, the agency asked the judge to deny the exchange’s request for the dismissal of the lawsuit. In a New York District Court, the regulator once again emphasized the fact that some of the cryptocurrencies sold on the trading platform were securities.

The regulator believes that some of the cryptocurrencies sold on Coinbase are securities under the Howey test and therefore must be registered with the SEC. It was also noted that Coinbase has “known all along” that the cryptocurrencies it sells are securities if they meet the Howey Test.

“Each crypto asset issuer invited investors—including purchasers on Coinbase’s platform—reasonably to expect the value of their investment to increase based on the issuer’s broadly disseminated plan to develop and maintain the asset’s value,” the SEC wrote in a brief.

Som svar på dessa uttalanden, Coinbase Chief Legal Officer Paul Grewal uppgav that the arguments were “more of the same old same old” while adding that the assets it lists “are not securities and are not within the SEC’s jurisdiction.”

De @SECgov har precis lämnat in sitt motstånd mot vår motion att avvisa deras fall mot @Coinbase. It’s more of the same old same old. But don’t just take my word for it – take a look for yourself. 1/7 https://t.co/QMdkRoiq0V

Judge Dismisses SEC’s Appeal in XRP Lawsuit

On the other hand, district court judge Analisa Torres, who had ruled that XRP was not a security when sold to retail investors, has rejected the SEC’s motion for appeal in the XRP lawsuit. 

I ett domstolsbeslut, domaren sa att tillsynsmyndigheten inte klarade sin börda att visa att det fanns kontrollerande rättsfrågor eller att det fanns betydande skäl för meningsskiljaktigheter i frågan.

“The SEC’s motion for certification of interlocutory appeal is denied, and the SEC’s request for a stay is denied as moot,” Torres added.

Som tidigare rapporterats av Bitnation, SEC-ordförande Gary Gensler behöll en stridbar hållning mot kryptovalutor framför House Financial Services Committee. Han hävdade att kryptoföretag har varit farligt slarviga med kundtillgångar.
