The SEC won’t pursue enforcement against Ethereum 2.0, but why? How much of a role did politics play? And where does that leave staking and court cases involving companies such as Consensys and Coinbase?
Last week, Consensys revealed that the SEC had concluded an investigation into Ethereum 2.0, referring to when Ethereum transitioned from a proof-of-work consensus mechanism to a proof-of-stake one.
In this episode, Laura Brookover, senior counsel & head of litigation and investigations at Consensys, and Sam Enzer, partner at Cahill Gordon & Reindel, explore the implications of this decision on Ether’s status as a commodity versus a security, and why the SEC dropped the pursuit, including whether the shifting political winds played a role. For instance, how much of the decision was influenced by the ETH ETF approvals, Democrats crossing party lines to vote for FIT21 and the repeal of SAB 121, and/or SEC crypto enforcement chief David Hirsch’s resignation?
In this discussion, they also explained why the closure doesn’t necessarily mean that staking, or restaking, is safe from the SEC. Plus, what’s the impact of this closure on the other big crypto cases, such as Coinbase, Kraken, Uniswap, and Ripple?
Show highlights:
How Consensys managed to get the SEC to reveal that it had concluded its investigation into Ethereum 2.0, and the significance of that move
The SEC's possible reasoning behind investigating Ethereum after it had switched to proof of stake
How uncommon is it for the SEC to send a letter concluding an investigation like the one into Ethereum
Whether recent events around crypto as an election issue, the ETH ETF approvals, votes for FIT21 and the repeal of SAB 121, and David Hirsch’s resignation, might be connected to the decision to close this investigation
Whether the Biden administration has shifted its stance on crypto and whether Gensler should remain as chair
How the SEC might still go after staking
Whether restaking, such as pioneered by EigenLayer, is safe from regulatory actions
Why the SEC might be pursuing different judgments in various jurisdictions for MetaMask and Coinbase Wallet
What crucial evidence from the closed Ethereum 2.0 investigation could strengthen Coinbase's defense in its ongoing lawsuit
Why the SEC's aggressive stance on various crypto enforcement actions seems to remain unchanged despite closing the Ethereum 2.0 investigation
Why Sam and Laura believe Solana should not be considered a security, despite the SEC naming it as such in various crypto cases
How the SEC’s argument about an “ecosystem” is nonsensical, according to Laura Brookover
What the implications of the closed investigation are for the cases of Kraken and Ripple
What Sam and Laura B. are watching out for in terms of regulation and ongoing legal cases
