NFT marketplace OpenSea received a Wells notice from the SEC. Crypto lawyer Preston Byrne explains whether Gensler’s agency has a chance to win a potential case.
The SEC’s latest enforcement action is targeting NFTs, and OpenSea is in the crosshairs. In this episode, crypto lawyer Preston Byrne joins to unpack the implications of the SEC's Wells notice to OpenSea and what it might mean for the platform and the broader NFT market. Could Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act provide a unique defense for OpenSea? Preston also dives into other recent SEC moves, including cases against Stoner Cats, Impact Theory, and more.
Lastly, with the 2024 elections looming and political divides sharpening, is the SEC overreaching in its approach to crypto?
Show highlights:
Why Preston believes that the SEC will go after OpenSea for being an unregistered securities exchangeWhat the Stoner Cats case was about and why it was not a strong enforcement action, according to PrestonWhy OpenSea's defense against the SEC may hinge on Section 230 protections for user-generated content, setting it apart from traditional exchanges like Coinbase or BinanceHow the clear-cut promises made by Impact Theory about potential returns made their NFTs resemble securities, unlike the typical art-focused NFTs on OpenSeaWhy Nate Chastain’s NFT insider trading case is unlikely to impact the SEC’s potential lawsuit against OpenSeaWhether the $4 million settlement by Dapper Labs over NBA Top Shot NFTs likely represents little relevance to OpenSea's SEC issuesWhat a Wells notice signals about the SEC's likelihood of suing OpenSea and why they might feel confident about winning this caseHow Jonathan Mann and Brian Frye's lawsuit for clarity on NFTs as securities highlights the SEC's potentially overreaching stance in its possible case against OpenSeaHow Trump's careful language around his NFT collection likely minimizes SEC risk by avoiding investment promises and focusing on their use as digital collectiblesWhether the SEC's actions could reinforce the divide among crypto voters, with Trump promising a crypto-friendly stance and Harris likely continuing a more adversarial approachVisit our website for breaking news, analysis, op-eds, articles to learn about crypto, and much more: unchainedcrypto.com

In this week’s news roundup, Will, Colin, and Matt cover the news regarding Rhodium’s Chapter 11 bankruptcy, and they also touch on the spree of post-halving mergers and acquisitions in bitcoin mining. Plus, what’s the deal with public bitcoin miner AI/HPC strategies? Finally, they close on the ever-persistent (and always maddening) debate over bitcoin mining’s energy use.
Welcome back to The Mining Pod! Blockspace broke news this weekend that Texas-based bitcoin miner Rhodium is going bankrupt, and we follow up in today’s show about what we do and don’t know regarding the incipient restructuring. As Rhodium starts restructuring its debt, other bitcoin miners have been expanding, with mergers and acquisitions becoming the second hottest trend this summer in the mining sector. The hottest trend, though, is AI, and we’ve got the straight skinny on how public bitcoin miners are approaching the hyped-up sector. And in this week’s Cry Corner, the gang addresses yet more quibbling about Bitcoin’s energy use (when Solomon said that there’s nothing new under the sun, he was really talking about energy FUD…).

In this week’s news roundup, Will, Colin, and Matt break down how Babylon Chain’s launch pumped Bitcoin transactions fees to multi-month highs. Plus, they discuss Bitfarms’ merger with Stronghold and what it means for Riot’s hostile takeover attempt, and they wrap up the pod by covering Q2 numbers from the public miners – oh, and a note on the IMF’s absurd plea to tax bitcoin miners into oblivion.
Welcome back to The Mining Pod! On Thursday, Bitcoin transaction fees soared to their highest levels since April, but it has nothing to do with runes or inscriptions. This go around, it was all thanks to the launch of Babylon Chain, a new off-chain BTC staking platform. We also tackle Bitfarms’ merger with Stronghold and what it could mean (or not mean) for Riot’s ongoing attempt at a hostile share takeover of Bitfarms. Finally, we close on the latest Q2 figures and operational updates from public bitcoin miners, and Colin rants about why the IMF needs to take their bitcoin miner tax proposal and shove it...someplace where it won’t see the light of day.
