Opinion: Coinbase is facing a 'battle of life and death' with the SEC

Odaily星球日报讯 彭博社今日刊文称,Coinbase在与SEC的法律斗争中面临生死考验,SEC的执法行动对Coinbase尤其不利。Coinbase去年超过80%的收入来自美国,现在其商业模式面临着近乎生死存亡的威胁。 Ashbury Legal的律师Ashok Ayyar表示:“对于Coinbase来说,这个案子是生死攸关的,因为它更专注于美国市场。预计Coinbase会对此展开激烈的诉讼。诉讼称,Coinbase几乎所有的美国业务都是非法的。” Oppenheimer & Co.分析师Owen Lau预计Coinbase会面临一场长期的法律战。他说:“虽然Coinbase可能在短期内正常运营,但SEC的指控可能造成声誉损害并可能导致用户从该平台撤资。” 在第一季度,Coinbase的收入已经不到其2021年末峰值的三分之一。过去两天,其股价下跌了20%。 从长远来看,如果SEC胜诉,Coinbase将面临更大的打击。此案可能会迫使该公司停止提供被视为证券的代币的托管和交易,从而威胁到其很大一部分业务。 “如果SEC阻止Coinbase交易一些他们认为是证券的代币,这可能会对Coinbase的财务健康产生巨大影响,”Lau说,“我认为,面临风险的营收可能超过50%。” 但他补充称,SEC可能无法在所有指控中获胜:“需要注意的是,失去一切的可能性可能非常低。” 昨日消息,SEC起诉Coinbase,指控Coinbase未能在该机构注册为经纪商、交易所或清算公司,且Coinbase的质押计划也违反了证券法。另外,SEC将SOL、ADA、MATIC、FIL、SAND、AXS、CHZ、FLOW、ICP、NEAR、VGX、DASH和NEXO认定为证券。
