A possible SEC probe of Coinbase has sent crypto in general and $COIN in particular sharply lower. mikeybellusci reports
SEC is investigating the company for allowing Americans to trade in tokens that should have been registered as securities.
“Coinbase was considered one of the better run crypto companies that tried to obey the rules and work with the regulatory bodies,” Edward Moya, senior markets analyst at Oanda said in a note Tuesday. “The risk of tougher regulation has been a constant headache for crypto and it seems a couple tough rulings could cripple a good portion of the cryptoverse," he added."If some cryptos are deemed securities that would make the life of so many brokerages so much harder.
While Coinbase is hardest hit, with a 20% drop late on Tuesday afternoon, related players like MicroStrategy , Marathon Digital are also suffering sizable declines of roughly 11%.
