⚖️ SEC Charges Binance and Coinbase with Selling Unlicensed Securities

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has filed separate charges against Binance and Coinbase for selling unlicensed securities in the country. This comes despite the lack of clear regulatory guidelines from the SEC regarding the classification of crypto tokens as “securities”. Although $BNB, $SOL, $ADA, $MATIC, and other tokens saw price drops, the lack of significant capital flight suggests ongoing confidence in the crypto market.

Swift is partnering with banking institutions to conduct trials for cross-chain tokenized asset transfers.
