On Monday, the exchange sued SEC, urging the court to compel the regulator to respond to its rulemaking petition.Paul Grewal, Chief Legal Officer at Coinbase, tweeted:<blockquote>“The SEC is required by law to respond to petitions “within a reasonable time,” but they have not yet responded to our petition from last July, which is why we filed our action in court today.”</blockquote>The crypto community sees SEC’s functioning in the recent months after the FTX collapse as “unreasonable” and unclear actions. The regulator began trapping prominent exchanges such as Binance, <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/crypto-exchange-bittrex-charged-by-sec-for-unregistered-security-offering/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bittrex</a>, and now Coinbase under its radar.SEC cornered Coinbase by issuing a Wells Notice accusing the crypto exchange’s products and services from token listings to staking. This action of the SEC was <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/ripple-cto-reaction-to-coinbase-wells-notice-heats-up-twitter/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">prominently criticized</a> in the sector. Neither SEC nor Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) alleged crypto entities or services stating concrete or clear reason.Hence, with this move, Coinbase seeks a clear-cut route for crypto regulations in the United States. Parallel to the 3-year Ripple struggle, this crypto exchange began facing <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/coinbases-ceo-frustrated-over-secs-regulatory-laws/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">regulatory pressure from SEC</a> in 2021. Thus, in July 2022, Coinbase filed a rulemaking petition to lay down regulations for identifying and governing digital assets that are securities. No official response from SEC was recorded.<h3 id="coinbase-and-its-stand-with-crypto-move">Coinbase and Its “Stand With Crypto” Move</h3>Since the start of 2023, Coinbase displayed its sincere initiatives toward the development of <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/coinbase-to-make-contributions-to-pro-crypto-candidates-in-u-s-elections/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">pro-crypto policies</a> in the world, especially in the US. Notably, with its campaign, <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/coinbase-introduces-crypto435-community-for-crypto-advocates/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Crypto 435</a>, the exchange aimed to persuade all 435 US congressional districts to take a clear stance on crypto regulations.Likewise, soon after the Monday suit, the crypto exchange supported the launch of “Stand with Crypto” – a commemorative NFT featuring a blue shield. The main objective of this collection is to protect and promote the future of cryptocurrency through a fair global crypto policy. To the crypto community, Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong markedly unveiled that he minted one blue shield NFT.Continue reading <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/coinbase-the-first-crypto-exchange-to-officially-sue-sec/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">&#64;TheNewsCrypto</a>
