    Bittrex Wants Its $24 Million Settlement Back, Now That the SEC Is Pro-Crypto

    Crypto exchange Bittrex, which ceased operations after settling an SEC lawsuit under President Joe Biden’s administration, is now requesting the agreement be tossed in light of the regulator’s about-face on crypto. In a new filing this week, attorneys representing the exchange asked a federal judge to vacate his prior judgment and compel the SEC to refund the $24 million Bittrex paid the regulator as a penalty back in 2023. Under the Biden administration, the SEC sued Bittrex for offering the s...

    CME, the world’s top derivatives marketplace, announced plans Tuesday to launch Bitcoin volatility futures that will soon allow traders to bet on the intensity of the cryptocurrency’s price swings. The derivatives would allow Bitcoin traders to hedge against fluctuations in the asset's ever-changing price, without betting on the price of Bitcoin itself. The product will debut on June 1, CME said, pending regulatory review. “With our new Bitcoin volatility futures, traders will be able to invest...

    Crypto Whale Sues Coinbase Alleging Exchange Refuses to Return Stolen Funds

    An anonymous crypto whale based in Puerto Rico sued Coinbase this week, accusing the crypto exchange of failing to release funds stolen from the user in a 2024 hack. Though key details in the lawsuit are redacted, information in the filing regarding the hack closely resembles a massive exploit in August 2024 that saw a single crypto user lose over $55 million worth of an Ethereum stablecoin, DAI, after falling for a phishing scam. The lawsuit, filed Monday in a federal court in San Francisco, c...

The license, to operate as a Derivatives Clearing Organization, or DCO, will allow Gemini to settle prediction market wagers and other derivatives trades in-house, as opposed to relying on an authorized third-party.
