At all times, Coinbase was soliciting the customers to invest in the Digital Asset securities that it offered on its broker platform," the lawsuit states.

The company failed to register itself or the securities it sells. As a result, the plaintiffs are seeking full recission (the cancellation of a contract), injunctive relief, and statutory damages.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filed a lawsuit against Coinbase last year, alleging that the exchange engaged in unregistered sales of securities. As reported by U.Today, the SEC alleged that Cardano (ADA) and other major cryptocurrencies were unregistered securities, dealing a blow to the crypto industry.

Como informó U.Today, la SEC alegó que Cardano (ADA) y otras criptomonedas importantes eran valores no registrados, lo que asestó un golpe a la industria de las criptomonedas.

In March, the SEC secured a major victory against the cryptocurrency giant when the court rejected its motion to dismiss the lawsuit.
