SEC targets Coinbase, Do Kwon arrested and FTX sells $95M in Mysten Labs: Hodler’s Digest, March 19-25
Coinbase (NASDAQ:) could face SEC enforcement action for ‘potential violations of securities law’
Crypto exchange Coinbase received a Wells notice from the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) suggesting an upcoming enforcement action. According to Coinbase, the legal threat could potentially target its staking program, listed digital assets, wallet or Coinbase Prime services. The exchanges chief legal officer, Paul Grewal, said the warning comes after Coinbase provided multiple proposals to the SEC about registration over the course of months, all of which the SEC ultimately refused to respond to. Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong renewed calls for crypto users to elect pro-crypto candidates after the development.
FTX debtors agree to $95M sale of stake in Mysten Labs
As bankruptcy proceedings for FTX move forward, debtors of the defunct crypto exchange have approved an agreement seeking to sell $95 million worth of its preferred stock in Mysten Labs, the company behind the Sui blockchain. Court approval is still pending, as is the potential for other bids on the stocks. In a related headline, FTX is seeking to recover $460 million of allegedly misappropriated customer funds from venture capital firm Modulo Capital, which received a sizeable investment from Alameda Research last year. The investment was reportedly directed by Sam Bankman-Fried, who faces multiple counts in federal court related to alleged fraud during his time as CEO.
