SECтин Стейкингге каршы күрөшү DeFi үчүн жеңиш болобу?

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) seems determined to attack crypto-staking services after filing charges against Kraken. But what will the consequences be for толугу менен?

Crypto staking is again making headlines after Coinbase Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Brian Armstrong condemned the restrictions SEC тарабынан.

Crypto exchange Kraken was under SEC investigation for offering unregulated securities. Eventually, Kraken settled these charges with SEC closing its staking facilities and paying 30 миллион доллар айып пул.
