It really is a new golden age for the APA
DEALER RULE STRUCK DOWN! SEC exceeded its statutory authority. HUGE win for the entire industry @BlockchainAssn and @CryptoFreedomTX !!!
I know everyone's excited about their bags, but if y'all could try also not to hire so many DPRK hackers this bull run I think that'd be pretty cool too
I am unreasonably stoked on this article coming out. Finally practical guidance on crypto forward contracts from people who know their shit. medium.com/@mikefrisch_82… Nice work @mdf2000 and @Alex_LLOYLaw
Spare a thought for the now-demolished weekend of every attorney you know in crypto
Whoa. Potentially a big deal, particularly given the recent Galois action.
The SAB121 line of questioning led to the first time I have ever heard Chair Gensler give guidance to the market (he endeavors to never say anything new) but what i heard was (1) due to FTX etc and harm to consumers, the public NEEDs to know what happens to their assets in…
FinCEN analysis on mail theft-related check fraud following a 2023 Alert. In just 6mos, over 15k reports of more than $688mm. More support for an updated financial system that's tamper-resistant & widely accessible w/ less vulnerable intermediation. fincen.gov/news/news-rele…
We should heed these 2 CFTC Commissioners and avoid chilling DeFi innovation. @cftcmersinger: cftc.gov/PressRoom/Spee… @CFTCpham : cftc.gov/PressRoom/Spee…
Very disappointing to see @SECGov’s continued regulation by enforcement, now targeting #NFT marketplace @opensea The SEC and Gary Gensler should abandon this path and work with Congress to establish clear and fair regulations that foster innovation and keep jobs in the U.S.
Crypto is far from the currency of choice for financial predators, says former CFTC Commissioner Fred Hatfield. That’s really the U.S. dollar. Opinion. trib.al/JPMJ9Gh

0/ Today, we are forced to return to an incredibly unfortunate subject: Operation Chokepoint 2.0. I will include the press release from the Federal reserve at the end of this thread, along with @nic__carter's original article on OCP 2.0.
I look forward after this to more WH CEA reports on how decentralization of software is pointless. That one company can crash most of modern tech almost by accident should by both a huge scandal & an emergency on part with semiconductor production almost entirely in one country.
The dangers of over-centralization of control over software, exemplified today
What Bill is describing here, that is to say the process of each commercial entity individually KYC'ing each customer, is also the way to ensure that by taking this maximalist stance about KYC security, you will also achieve maximum possible fraud in your system. "Wait, what?" I…
There are a number of projects that are trying to scale the "get KYCed once by a trusted third party and then show proof of that to everyone else" way of doing KYC. What the KYC-maxi crowd (basically anyone who does gov't-side AML policy) responds with is that KYC is not…
When the Russian Govt did this to a Russian lawyer (Magnitsky), the US created Global Magnitsky Human Rights Accountability sanctions to address “gross violations of human rights” by a foreign govt. GloMag accountability should be on the table here to protect a US citizen.

In post-Chevron world, each of these rules is subject to legal challenge. They form almost the entire basis of RIA compliance.
It is entirely possible that almost every rule the SEC has adopted regarding investment adviser compliance exceeds its authority. 1. Rule 206(4)-7 - Policies and Procedures Rule - Is it really a rule "reasonably designed to prevent, such acts, practices, and courses of business…
Good thread on PFAR and the implications of the 5th Cir. decision vacating it.
1/15 Last week the 5th Cir. vacated the Private Fund Adviser rule (PFAR) on the grounds that the SEC, in enacting the rule, exceeded its statutory authority. Congratulations to our friends at @AIMA_org and their co-plaintiffs on the ruling. The SEC has until late June to appeal.
