Circle Argues Stablecoins Are Not Securities, Files Friend of Court Brief In Binance-SEC Case
Portfolio Pulse from Khyathi Dalal
Circle has entered the legal dispute between Binance and the SEC, arguing that stablecoins should not face the same financial trading regulations as traditional securities. Circle's argument is based on the fact that stablecoins are tied to the dollar and users do not expect any profit from their purchases. The case originally involved arguments from crypto exchanges such as Binance and Coinbase, which stated that cryptocurrencies should not be subject to existing strict U.S. financial laws.
