Coinbase Vs. Big Brother: Exchange Accuses SEC Of Trying To Kill Crypto

Leading US bitcoin exchange Coinbase is intensifying its battle with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), charging the body of trying to choke the crypto sector with “regulation by enforcement.”

The SEC-Coinbase Acrimony

In a fiery appeal made on May 31st, Coinbase presents the SEC as an innovation-squashing behemoth that gives enforcement actions top priority over creating fair and clear rules for the expanding digital asset market.

The essence of the argument is the June 2023 lawsuit the SEC filed against Coinbase. By not registering as a broker or exchange, Coinbase allegedly breached securities rules according to the SEC.

Remarkably, the SEC’s says – over and over again – that it doesn’t matter if the industry can comply with the rules. The SEC is bent on choking the digital asset industry, and is refusing to provide the necessary rules the industry has requested in order to tighten the squeeze.…

Coinbase responds that compliance is almost impossible given the vague rules the SEC now imposes on cryptocurrencies.

Some inside the SEC itself seem to feel this way. Strong supporter of better crypto rules, Commissioner Hester Pierce recently suggested a joint sandbox programme whereby US and UK blockchain companies might test tokenized securities under controlled conditions.

This effort contrasts sharply with the SEC’s present strategy, which Coinbase compares to “wielding a sledgehammer to break a walnut.”

The SEC argues otherwise, though. In its first complaint against Coinbase, the government claimed that current laws are adequate and their implementation acts as a clear road map for the sector. They probably see the victorious case as validation of their strategy.

Crypto’s Regulatory Crossroads

The result of the Coinbase appeal might represent a turning point for the cryptocurrency market. A victory for Coinbase might compel the SEC to show up for negotiations, therefore opening the path for a more cooperative legislative environment.

On the other hand, a triumph for the SEC would confirm their enforcement-centric approach, therefore perhaps restricting innovation and driving US crypto companies abroad to friendlier legal borders.

The more general political environment adds still another dimension of mystery. Given the approaching presidential elections, all sides are beginning to consider the increasing relevance of cryptocurrencies. While some legislators support motivating innovation inside a well-defined regulatory framework, others share the SEC’s concerns about possible risks to investors.

Future settling of the control of cryptocurrency might not be clear-cut. Will the US embrace this technology and turn into a worldwide hub for cryptocurrencies, or will rigors enforcement inspire creativity overseas?
