"The case we have filed today is intended to preserve access for the thousands of developers, market participants, and institutions who have a stake in the world's second largest blockchain," said Joe Lubin, Co-founder of Ethereum and Founder/CEO of Consensys. "The SEC cannot be allowed to arbitrarily expand its jurisdiction to regulate what is plainly and by the SEC's own prior admission a commodity. We are hopeful that the case brings attention to – and ultimately halts -- the SEC's reckless approach and restores the kind of regulatory certainty and sanity that is so essential to web3 technologies and a well-functioning innovation economy."

Key Points: 
  • The complaint highlights how the SEC is attempting to unlawfully regulate ether through ad hoc enforcement actions against Consensys and possibly others -- the latest examples of aggressive and unlawful SEC overreach.
  • "The SEC cannot be allowed to arbitrarily expand its jurisdiction to regulate what is plainly and by the SEC's own prior admission a commodity.
  • One of Consensys' products, the MetaMask wallet, gives users everything they need to explore web3; from managing their identity, sending and receiving cryptocurrency, to connecting to decentralized applications built on Ethereum.
  • Consensys further seeks an order enjoining the SEC from continuing to investigate or bringing an enforcement action with respect to its sales of ether and as to MetaMask.
