The decision allows Coinbase to appeal a critical legal ruling while temporarily pausing further proceedings in the case. Judge Failla acknowledged the conflicting rulings regarding the SEC's application of securities laws to crypto-assets. The Second Circuit Court of Appeals will now review whether the crypto-assets at the center of the case meet the definition of "investment contracts" under securities law. The SEC filed the lawsuit in June 2023, alleging that Coinbase operated as an unregistered securities exchange, broker, and clearing agency.LaChain Joins Elastic Chain NetworkLaChain, a blockchain designed to meet the needs of Latin American users, has joined ZKsync’s Elastic Chain Network. The upgrade to ZK Stack was driven by the network’s speed, low transaction costs, and developer tools. LaChain is developed by Ripio, a crypto payments platform in LATAM with over 19 million users. By joining the Elastic Chain Network, LaChain becomes part of a growing ecosystem alongside 12 other chains, including Zero Network, Lens Network, and Abstract. The integration enables LaChain projects to seamlessly connect and interact with other blockchains within the Elastic Network, fostering interoperability.Coinbase Wallet Supports Bank DepositsCoinbase Wallet, Coinbase's non-custodial wallet, introduced support for receiving bank deposits directly into USDC on Base.
