This time, the legal veteran is concerned about the inconsistency in the regulator\u2019s tone in its recent filing opposing its request for an Interlocutory Appeal.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Coinbase CLO: We Need to Maintain Honest Conversations<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Recall that Coinbase filed a request for an <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/coinbase-files-interlocutory-appeal-challenging-sec-authority-on-crypto-transactions\/\">interlocutory appeal<\/a> in April after a Judge denied its Motion to Dismiss (MTD) request. The Gary Gensler-led Commission has filed its opposition to the appeal demand from the trading platform.<\/p>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.82 --><\/p>\n<p>The regulator maintained that the Court should prevent Coinbase from filing the appeal. Coinbase\u2019s stance for filing the appeal hinges on the differences in Opinion in a 1946 U.S Supreme Court case the regulator typically quotes. The major contention in the regulator\u2019s filing against Coinbase is that majority of its supported assets are investment contracts.<\/p>\n<p>This classification hinges on the provisions of the Howey Test, a keenly contested yardstick by crypto innovators. In his post on X, the Coinbase CLO said the Commission could not help contradicting its own help contradicting its own arguments. Grewal spotted different arguments in the same kind of appeal in the Ripple Labs lawsuit.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Today <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SECGov?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@SECGov<\/a> filed its response to our request to file an interlocutory appeal with the 2nd Cir.

This time around, he specifically noted that the regulator contradicted itself as it relates to the need for appellate review. Grewal reiterated that in order to make headway, there need to be honesty between the regulator and the exchange\u2019s team.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cLet\u2019s at least have an honest conversation. Forget about a split across agencies, circuits and elsewhere. There\u2019s not even a consensus about Howey and digital assets among the district judges in the same courthouse at Foley Square,\u201d the Coinbase CLO said in his post on X.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2><strong>Compounding Coinbase and SEC Loggerhead<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Besides the securities lawsuit, the US SEC and Coinbase has other unsettled legal battles to sort. The exchange has sued the Commission for not providing regulatory clarity upon demands by industry stakeholders.<\/p>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.82 --><\/p>\n<p>While neither party is willing to back down, it remains to be seen how the current securities lawsuit will pan out.
