According to the court filings, MetaMask facilitated more than 36 million
crypto transactions over the past four years. At least 5 million of these
transactions involved Polygon ( MATIC ), Mana (MANA), Chiliz ( CHZ ), the

( SAND ), and Luna• Космонавтика » Космическая техника » Ракеты-носители » Луна (ракета-носитель)

(LUNA• Космонавтика » Космическая техника » Ракеты-носители » Луна (ракета-носитель)

). The SEC classifies these tokens as
unregistered securities .

Since at least January 2023, Consensys has offered and sold tens of
thousands of unregistered securities on behalf of liquid staking program
providers Lido and Rocket• Космонавтика » Космическая техника » Ракеты-носители » Луна (ракета-носитель)

Pool, the SEC stated .

In response to the lawsuit Consensys stated they had expected the SEC to claim
MetaMask must register as a securities broker.

The SEC has been pursuing an anti-crypto agenda led by ad hoc• Телекоммуникации и связь » Компьютерная сеть » Беспроводные компьютерные сети » Ad hoc
enforcement action.mThis is just the latest example of its regulatory
overreach — a transparent attempt to redefine well-established legal standards
and expand the SEC’s jurisdiction via lawsuit, Consensys noted.

Pool, issuing stETH and rETH in exchange for staked assets. The SEC
alleges these integrations amount to investment• Экономика » Финансы » Инвестиции contracts and
that the liquid staking tokens are unregistered securities.

Since January 2023, Consensys has engaged in the unregistered offer and
sale of securities in the form of crypto asset staking programs, and acted as
an unregistered broker, through its MetaMask Staking service. By its conduct
as an unregistered broker, Consensys has collected over $250 million in
fees, the SEC further stated.

Consensys, led by Ethereum• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Ethereum co-founder Joe Lubin, has previously been
investigated by the SEC. Although Consensys announced those investigations had
ended, the latest lawsuit renewed its legal challenges.

Consensys has actively defended its operations and regulatory stance. This
lawsuit follows Consensys s previous legal action against the SEC ,
seeking relief from the possibility of MetaMask being classified as a broker.
The outcome of that case was in favor of the SEC. Consensys believes this new
lawsuit simply adds to the SEC s anti-crypto agenda.

We are confident in our position that the SEC has not been granted
authority to regulate software interfaces like MetaMask. We will continue to
vigorously pursue our case in Texas for ruling on these issues because it
matters not only to our company but the future success of Web3,
Consensys concluded.

These issues highlight the problems arising from unclear and hostile
regulations towards crypto. Consensys is one of many companies taking a stand
to find a fair middle ground. The outcome of these legal battles could
significantly impact cryptocurrency regulation• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта and the future development of
Web3.
