    What 'The Merge' Means for Decrypt, Rug Radio and You

    Decrypt and Rug Radio are tying the knot—a union designed to create the first, honest-to-goodness, crypto-native media juggernaut.

    Following a series of delays, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission today rejected investment firm VanEck's application to launch an exchange-traded fund that directly tracks the price of Bitcoin. In its ruling, the SEC again cited concerns that the Bitcoin spot market is prone to "fraud and manipulation." To date, the Commission has only allowed Bitcoin ETFs linked to futures, contracts that bet on the future price of Bitcoin and which are regulated by the CFTC, to move forward. New York-...

    Grape’s Token Sale Took Down Solana—Now It’s Raising More Money for Its Army of DAOs

    There are hidden chat rooms on the internet, where cryptocurrency investors and traders build communities, share secrets, and collectively decide what to do with the money that they make. You’ll find these rooms on Discord, a messaging app originally designed for gamers that’s quickly become the home of crypto natives in search of the next big thing.

    SEC Chairman Hints at More Lawsuits Against Stock Token Issuers

    The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has spent the last four years attempting to rein in the largely unruly world of cryptocurrency trading. And that isn’t going to change under Gary Gensler’s watch, it appears. The newly appointed SEC chairman today told the virtual attendees of the American Bar Association’s mid-year program that more enforcement action—the kind that put an end to lucrative initial coin offerings (ICOs)—could be heading to cryptoland. “We’ve brought some cases involving...

    Elon Musk likes to keep himself busy—he cofounded PayPal, runs the multibillion dollar car company Tesla, and wants to "protect the future of consciousness by making life multi-planetary” through aerospace company SpaceX. But galvanizing Bitcoin miners toward a cleaner, more energy-efficient future won’t be on his to-do list—not formally, anyway.

    Multicoin Launches $100M Crypto Fund with Sights Set on Solana DeFi

    When Kyle Samani and Tushar Jain launched Multicoin Capital’s first $10 million investment fund in late 2017, the combined value of the cryptocurrency market stood at just $170 billion. The crypto market has since ballooned to more than $2.2 trillion, and Multicoin Capital will need a good deal more than $10 million to fund its next cohort of crypto entrepreneurs—10 times more. The Austin-based investment firm today announced the launch of a $100 million venture fund, which it plans to use to ba...

    Crypto payments firm Ripple today filed its response to the billion-dollar lawsuit it faces from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

    Blame it on COVID: NBA star Spencer Dinwiddie has pulled off the historic sale of tokenized shares in his NBA contract. But the Brooklyn Nets guard only managed to get a tenth of what he was hoping to raise. Dinwiddie’s security token offering allowed investors to buy a stake in his $34 million NBA contract by purchasing SD26 Ethereum-based tokens. The sale, which closed earlier this month, offered up a total of $13.5 million worth of shares. But, according to an SEC filing submitted today, Dinw...

    Block.one, the company behind the EOS cryptocurrency, today settled charges with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission by agreeing to pay a $24 million fine over its unregistered ICO. In 2017, Block.one raised the equivalent of $4 billion through the ICO that launched EOS. You do the math. As usual, the object of the SEC’s enforcement action has settled with the Commission without admitting or denying the charges.
