Wintermute founder and CEO Evgeny Gaevoy has accused NEAR Foundation and Aurora of failing to convert $11 million worth of USN stablecoins. Gaevoy claims that NEAR refused to honor their commitment to facilitate the sale of $11.2 million worth of USN for the FTX estate, despite previously earmarking money for it. Wintermute executed the transaction on the basis that it would be able to redeem USN to USDT on a one-to-one basis, but NEAR allegedly "refused to honor their commitments" and offered a final settlement of 20% of the $11 million. Wintermute plans to pursue legal action against NEAR and Aurora.

U.S. Congressman Mike Flood: Looking forward to working with the next SEC Chairman to revoke the anti-crypto banking policy SAB 121
US House of Representatives will investigate Representative Mike Flood's recent statement: "Despite widespread opposition, SAB 121 is still operating as a regulation, even though it has never gone through the normal Administrative Procedure Act process." Flood said, "I look forward to working with the next SEC chairman to revoke SAB 121. Whether Chairman Gary Gensler resigns on his own or President Trump fulfills his promise to dismiss Gensler, the new government has an excellent opportunity to usher in a new era after Gensler's departure." He added, "It's not surprising that Gensler opposed the digital asset regulatory framework passed by the House on a bipartisan basis earlier this year. 71 Democrats and House Republicans passed this common-sense framework together. Although the Democratic-led Senate rejected it, it represented a breakthrough moment for cryptocurrency and may provide information for the work of the unified Republican government when the next Congress begins in January next year." -
