Quick Glance: Coinbase to Face US Securities Regulator's Lawsuit, Judge Rules
- A federal judge in Manhattan stated that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's lawsuit against Coinbase can proceed, but dismissed one claim made by the regulator against the largest U.S. cryptocurrency exchange.
- The decision is a partial victory for Coinbase and largely supports the SEC's approach to cryptocurrencies, aligning with other judges who have sided with the regulatory agency.
- The SEC sued Coinbase in June, alleging that the firm facilitated trading of at least 13 crypto tokens that should have been registered as securities and was operating illegally as a national securities exchange, broker, and clearing agency without registering with the regulator.
- Judge Failla allowed most of the lawsuit to continue but rejected the SEC's claim that Coinbase acted as an unregistered broker through its wallet application.
