In his pre-hearing testimony, the SEC Chair maintained his same old stance that investors in the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/markets\/\">crypto market<\/a> deserve to get the protections of the US securities laws.<\/p>\n<p>Also Read: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/bitcoin-can-quickly-rally-70000-bitmex-arthur-hayes\"><strong>Bitcoin Can Quickly Rally To $70000 After Fed Decision, Says BitMEX Arthur Hayes<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.72.1 --><\/p>\n<h2>Gary Gensler Maintains Crypto Tokens As Securities Stance<\/h2>\n<p>In his testimony, the SEC official <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.banking.senate.gov\/imo\/media\/doc\/gensler_testimony_9-12-23.pdf\">maintained<\/a> that a majority of crypto tokens likely meet the investment contract test, which means they should be treated as securities. Surprisingly, Gensler is continuing to continue the securities law superimposition despite the SEC\u2019s recent loss in the XRP lawsuit, in which the judge denied the agency\u2019s argument that retail sale of tokens are securities transactions.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cGiven that most crypto tokens are subject to the securities laws, it follows that most crypto intermediaries have to comply with securities laws as well. Given this industry\u2019s wide-ranging non-compliance with the securities laws, it\u2019s not surprising that we\u2019ve seen many problems in these markets.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.72.1 --><\/p>\n<p>The US Senate Committee\u2019s full committee <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.banking.senate.gov\/hearings\/09\/06\/2023\/oversight-of-the-us-securities-and-exchange-commission\">hearing<\/a> on the Oversight of the U.S. SEC can be viewed live on the senate panel\u2019s website. Meanwhile, it remains to be seen if the crypto market, and especially the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/price\/bitcoin\/\">Bitcoin pric<\/a>e would show any particular reaction to Gensler\u2019s comments.<\/p>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.72.1 --><\/p>\n<h2>Enforcement Actions<\/h2>\n<p>In sharp contrast to the larger investor sentiment and the rising consensus among US lawmakers, Gensler had also noted that the agency introduced \u201cA number of enforcement actions (against crypto businesses), some settled, and some in litigation, to hold wrongdoers accountable and promote investor protection.\u201d Among the most notable ones in the recent times are the back to back lawsuits filed against two of the largest crypto exchanges in the world, Binance and <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/glossary\/coinbase\/\">Coinbase<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Also Read: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/eth-price-rollercoaster-dips-sweep-march-levels-1000-ethereum-incoming\"><strong>ETH Price Rollercoaster Dips Sweep March Levels, Will Ethereum Crash To $1,000?<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.72.1 --><\/p>\n<div class=\"m-on mobiless\">\n<div id=\"social-section-new\">\n<p>\u2713 Share:<\/p>\n<p>                                  <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"social-text_new wp_new\" href=\"https:\/\/api.whatsapp.com\/send?text=https:\/\/coingape.com\/bitcoin-to-rally-during-us-sec-chair-gary-genslers-hearing\/\">  <i class=\"fa fa-whatsapp\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div>\n                                <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"social-text_new tw_new_logo\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=https:\/\/coingape.com\/bitcoin-to-rally-during-us-sec-chair-gary-genslers-hearing\/\"><br \/>\n  <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/14164721\/x-logo.png\" class=\"mb-1\" alt=\"coingape\" width=\"30\" height=\"30\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a>\n                                <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>          &lt;!&#8211; <\/p>\n<div class=\"m-on pl-2 pr-2\">\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-6 pr-2\">\n<div class=\"Borderboxies_2 mb-3  fullmobx\">\n<p>            <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/top-7-crypto-marketing-firms-of-the-year\/?utm_source=abovesidebartabnews&amp;utm_medium=organicarticle\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"SponserdyWebimg_2\"><img width=\"834\" height=\"833\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/15175104\/top_crypto_marketing_agencies.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"834\" height=\"833\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/15175104\/top_crypto_marketing_agencies.jpg\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"Sponserdtent_2 mt-2\">Top Crypto Marketing Firms \/ Agencies 2023; Here\u2019s Best Picks [Updated]\n <\/div>\n<p>            <\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"col-6 pl-2\">\n<div class=\"Borderboxies_2 mb-3  fullmobx\">\n<p>            <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/top-10-web-3-games-to-explore-in-2023-here-list\/?utm_source=priceanalysisbar&amp;utm_medium=organicarticle\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"SponserdyWebimg_2\"><img width=\"834\" height=\"833\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/23134356\/jpg_20221223_134223_0000.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"834\" height=\"833\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/23134356\/jpg_20221223_134223_0000.jpg\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"Sponserdtent_2 mt-2\">Top 10 Web3 Games To Explore In 2023; Here List\n <\/div>\n<p>            <\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>                    &#8211;&gt;<\/p>\n<div class=\"TabDicA\">\n<div class=\"TBAcon \">\n<div class=\"authorFlip tabcS\" id=\"TabA159041\">\n<div class=\"authorBox\">\n<div class=\"author_Name\">\n&lt;!&#8211;<\/p>\n<div class=\"getAuthoname\"><\/div>\n<p>&#8211;&gt;<\/p>\n<p>Anvesh reports major crypto updates around U.S. regulation and market moving trends.
