Crypto Twitter This Week: Coinbase’s Legal Drama, Sam Bankman-Fried
The court today decided that the SEC lawsuit will proceed on most of the claims, but dismissed the claims against Coinbase Wallet. We’ve been preparing for this, and look forward to discovering more about the SEC’s internal views and discussions on cryptocurrency regulation. 1/6

This doesn’t bother me. If the SEC continues to act in bad faith, they will lose so hard in court that they will never be able to do this to anyone again. Remember when the SEC came under so much fire that Gensler had to tear up and approve the BTC ETF? Yes https://t.co/XWOwmoaICN

SBF got off really easily considering the severity of the crimes he committed and the number of victims.

I know some of you would like to see SBF get a longer sentence, but 25 years in prison is not an “easy get off” or a “slap on the wrist.”
