  • Coinbase Chief Legal Officer: US SEC blocks Coinbase’s request to disclose Gary Gensler’s communication documents

    Paul Grewal.eth, the Chief Legal Officer of Coinbase, wrote on the X platform that the issues of Chevron and Binance's secondary sales have been clarified, but in Coinbase's lawsuit, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has prevented Coinbase from requesting the disclosure of Gary Gensler's communication documents. In March 2021, Gary Gensler told the U.S. Congress that the SEC lacked regulatory authority over digital asset exchanges, confirming the long-held belief among market participants that digital asset trading on these exchanges is not within the jurisdiction of securities law. Coinbase has requested that Gary Gensler provide documents related to these communications because they are related to how the SEC's enforcement actions violate the due process requirements of the Constitution, but the SEC and Gary Gensler are trying to prevent the disclosure of these documents.

    The Supreme People's Court and the State Administration for Market Regulation jointly issued five typical cases of punishing pyramid schemes on the Internet in accordance with the law. Some of them falsely promised high returns by investing in "virtual currencies". The defendants, including Chen, used blockchain as a gimmick to plan the establishment of the "Token" network platform. According to statistics, the platform has registered more than 2.6 million member accounts, with a hierarchy of 3,293 levels, and collected more than 9 million virtual currencies such as Bitcoin, Tether, and EOS. The people's court sentenced the organizers and leaders of cross-border network pyramid schemes according to their positions and roles in the entire criminal chain, and confiscated virtual currencies such as Bitcoin involved in the case in accordance with the law. Relevant officials of the Supreme People's Court stated that in the next step, the people's court will work with market supervision departments and other units to strictly punish illegal pyramid schemes on the Internet in accordance with the law.
