Successful SEC lawsuits could significantly impact the cryptocurrency market, as they would establish the commission’s authority over the sector. Traditionally, the industry has argued that tokens are not securities and should not fall under the SEC’s regulatory purview. A favorable outcome for the lawsuits could thus trigger transformative changes in cryptocurrency, especially in light of Ripple’s latest victory.
Coinbase and Binance have rejected the SEC’s allegations against them and promised a robust defense. Armstrong has been an outspoken opponent of the SEC, calling SEC Chair Gary Gensler an “outlier” in the Washington policymaking community.
The outcome of these cases could shape the future regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies and have far-reaching consequences for market participants.
