      Sorry crypto world, but SEC isn’t backing down on ‘regulation by enforcement’

      For as long as I’ve been covering U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission litigation against crypto targets, the industry has harshly criticized the commission for bringing one-at-a-time enforcement actions as a way to set crypto regulatory policy, instead of engaging in formal rulemaking or waiting for Congress to pass legislation that clarifies when U.S. securities laws apply to digital assets. In the latest example, a onetime Coinbase Global Inc manager who was accused last year of insider trading by both the U.S. Justice Department and the SEC moved this week to dismiss the SEC’s complaint, arguing, among other things, that he didn't know the Ethereum-based crypto tokens he traded would be defined as securities by the SEC. The ex-Coinbase employee, Ishan Wahi, pleaded guilty on Tuesday to conspiring to commit wire fraud, but even at the plea hearing in his criminal case, Wahi insisted that the relevant tokens were not securities.

      FTX gets court approval to subpoena founder Bankman-Fried, other insiders

      Failed crypto firm FTX received court approval on Wednesday to issue subpoenas to its founder Sam Bankman-Fried and members of his family as part of the company's investigation into "misappropriated and stolen" funds. FTX, a once-prominent crypto exchange, filed for bankruptcy protection in November amid allegations that Bankman-Fried used FTX customers' money to prop up the balance sheet of the FTX-affiliated hedge fund Alameda Research. FTX said that it needs more information from former insiders, including its indicted founder, to identify misspending that could be clawed back to repay FTX's customers.
