TL;DR Summary

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has charged Coinbase for operating as an unregistered national securities exchange, broker, and clearing agency, as well as for failing to register the offer and sale of its crypto asset staking-as-a-service program. The SEC alleges that Coinbase has made billions of dollars unlawfully facilitating the buying and selling of crypto asset securities since at least 2019. Coinbase's failure to register has deprived investors of significant protections, including inspection by the SEC, recordkeeping requirements, and safeguards against conflicts of interest, among others.
