Freedom

The Digital Chamber of Commerce filed a motion to support LEJILEX and the Crypto Freedom Alliance of Texas (CFAT) in their lawsuit to block the SEC from regulating digital assets without clear legislative authority. 
The Digital Chamber supports LEJILEX and CFAT’s claim against the SEC, asserting that the SEC’s attempt to regulate digital assets as securities without clear legislation exceeds its jurisdiction, emphasizing the necessity for transparent and equitable industry rules.

The brief argues that the SEC’s actions could negatively impact not only LEJILEX and CFAT but the entire digital asset industry. It warns that without court intervention, the SEC may unjustly increase its enforcement activities and classify many digital assets as securities without clear guidelines. 
LEJILEX, preparing to launch Legit.Exchange, confronts legal risks as the SEC’s unclear stance prevents registration as a securities exchange or broker, raising concerns of potential enforcement actions for operating without registration. 
The amicus brief from the Digital Chamber highlights the broader impact of the SEC’s actions, citing previous enforcement actions against companies like Coinbase and Binance as examples of overregulation. 
The Digital Chamber contends that the SEC’s current approach infringes on Congress’s regulatory role, advocating for collaborative guideline creation to support innovation and clarity in compliance expectations. 
Perianne Boring, CEO of The Digital Chamber, <a href="https://digitalchamber.org/tdc-files-amicus-brief-in-lejilex-sec/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">stated</a>, “By submitting this motion, we are taking a stand before the SEC’s anticipated overreach occurs. Our goal is to ensure that the SEC does not unlawfully expand its regulatory authority over the entire digital asset industry.”&nbsp; 
Paul Grewal, Chief Legal Officer of Coinbase, criticized the SEC’s broad regulatory approach and urged Congress to provide clear guidance on digital asset regulation, supporting LEJILEX with an amicus brief against the SEC’s regulatory power. 
The SEC’s regulatory actions on digital assets, lacking a clear legislative mandate, overstep its jurisdiction and require transparent and equitable industry rules.
