So let me get this straight. Government lawyers lie to the Court to gain an unfair advantage in litigation and the SEC’s answer is to say that going forward those lawyers will now be taught to be honest when saying things to Judges. Gensler’s SEC has become a travesty.

@Leerzeit @IOHK_Charles Wow, Charles's views have really changed

[Marc Cohodes @AlderLaneEggs]

Gary Wang the CCP operative and @SBF_FTX partner was a "special advisor" at Sequoia. Why has No One and I mean NO ONE in the MSM pulled on this string?

[RippleMeThis @ripple_this]

They slowed down the momentum of @Ripple just like they were instructed to do. They took it as far as they could and now they’ll turn around to the same people who ordered them to bring the case against #ripple in the 1st place and say, “we bought you all the time we could”. You’re on your own. Case will quietly settle or be dropped. You’ll never hear about it again and the SEC will attack the next competitor on their bosses list.

Think I’m wrong ?

[Jane Adams @iLoveJaneAdams]

@BoringSleuth The CCP's infiltration into Ethereum is deeply troubling and it's alarming that this isn't more widely known.

Wanxiang's Special Dealer Broker license raises serious questions about our regulators' judgment & priorities.

We must demand transparency & accountability.

[MetaLawMan @MetaLawMan]

Digging deep into the transcript of the pre-motion conference in SEC v. @Coinbase.

One of my favorite quotes from the Judge:

"What is the difference between those that are not [securities] and those that are? And how has that been communicated by the SEC to the investing public and to those involved in the space so that they know that this type of asset may implicate the securities laws and some other cryptoasset may not?"

The SEC lawyer answers (paraphrasing)--all they need to do Judge is read the 1946 Howey case about the orange groves.

Obviously unpersuaded by the absurd answer, the Judge tries again:

"I am just trying to figure out how folks involved in the industry can know that a particular crytoasset with which they are involved is or is not going to be found at some later date by the SEC to be a security."

Exactly.
This judge gets it.

New at the movies!
SEC & JPM - Buffoons and Butterfingers

Get ready for an uproarious ride of giggles and gaffes with SEC and JPMorgan, two titans hilariously tripping through a quagmire of corporate mazes and regulatory riddles. JPMorgan, in a fantastic display of sheer clumsiness, manages to delete every single email from the Trump era. Imagine the well-intentioned tech team at JPMorgan accidentally purging critical financial forecasts alongside office party invites, creating a whirlwind of confusion and comical calamities.

Meanwhile, the SEC, in its own unique brand of clumsy earnestness, unknowingly enlists the services of venture capitalists' lawyers to draft official regulations. Visualize high-stakes legal eagles, armed with financial jargon, crafting legal texts that range from hilariously off-target to outright preposterous. Of course, one could view these as mere innocent slip-ups in the gigantic machinery of finance and regulation.

But then, "SEC & JPMorgan: A Serendipitous Symphony of Slip-ups" is a playful reminder of the fun to be had when the clumsy giants of the industry take center stage. Prepare for a wild, laughter-filled expedition through the thrilling twists and turns of bumbling bureaucracy. After all, these are just personal opinions.

@VitalikButerin didn't just try to get the #ETHFreePass, which I can understand. No, he simultaneously tried to help the SEC shut the door on every crypto project that wasn't operating on the Ethereum network. He tried to create a monopoly that JP Morgan, Consensys, the EEA, Jay Clayton, Simpson Thatcher, Bill Hinman, A16Z, and all the ETH whales would benefit from. They all acted unethically, and some even acted illegally. It's no wonder the DOJ tried to get @StevenNerayoff to give up the goods on @ethereumJoseph, and who's to say he didn't? The case against Steven was mysteriously dropped after he had already been indicted. If I were Lubin or Vitalik, I'd be running back to Sweden. Oh, wait, that's right, they can't because they screwed over 35 employees by secretly selling core parts of the Ethereum business to JP Morgan and are now being sued in Swiss Court. Or at least Joseph is. Everywhere they go, everything they touch, turns to s***.

[Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran]

Omg the Promethean backers were involved in not one but two other crypto related scams previously, and yet the SEC approved them over Coinbase, Kraken and others?!

It just keeps getting worse!

[Matt Walsh @MattWalshInBos]

Then Prometheum’s CEO somehow gets a seat in front of Congress yesterday and starts reading off pre-written notes clearly coordinating narratives with Democratic members of Congress (or the SEC)
