Coinbase Investors Question CEO’s Stock Sale Prior SEC Complaint<\/span><\/h2>\n

Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong has come under scrutiny after selling a massive 29,730 shares of his company’s Class A Common Stock on June 5, 2023, according to a Form 4 <\/span>filed <\/span><\/a>with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Armstrong made the sale in eight separate transactions, all on the same date, at an average price of $60.3 per share. This netted him over $1.7 million in total.<\/span><\/p>\n

There is speculation that Armstrong’s stock sale was a pre-planned transaction, made before Coinbase’s stock plummeted from $63 per share to $44, a considerable decline of 30%. This has raised concerns among investors about the possibility of insider trading or a planned stock sale by the company’s executives.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, executives at publicly traded companies like Coinbase since 2021, are often required to follow strict rules about when and how they can trade their company’s stocks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

They are typically required to set up a trading plan, which allows them to schedule sales of their stocks well in advance, at times when they do not possess insider information. The plan’s details, including how many shares to sell and when must be pre-determined and followed exactly.<\/span><\/p>\n

If Armstrong’s sale was made according to his plan, the timing of the sale just a day before the SEC lawsuit was made public would be a coincidence. However, some investors are still concerned about the optics of the sale and the possibility of insider trading.<\/span><\/p>\n

Nevertheless, companies are typically bound by disclosure rules that require them to inform the public of significant events as soon as possible. The announcement of the SEC lawsuit likely followed these rules, and it’s possible that the news coincided with Armstrong’s pre-scheduled stock sale.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ripple’s SEC Case Could Have Far-Reaching Implications For The Exchanges<\/span><\/h3>\n

The ongoing SEC v. Ripple case has significant implications for the cryptocurrency industry, particularly for companies like Coinbase and Binance. <\/span>According <\/span><\/a>to crypto-friendly lawyer James Murphy, a ruling in favor of Ripple by Judge Torres could undermine the SEC’s case against Coinbase and Binance.<\/span><\/p>\n

Murphy believes that if Judge Torres rules that XRP tokens traded on secondary markets are not securities, it would weaken the SEC’s argument that Coinbase is operating an unregistered securities exchange, broker-dealer, and clearing broker. The SEC claims that 13 tokens traded on Coinbase are securities, but if those tokens are ruled not to be securities, the SEC’s case would fall apart.<\/span><\/p>\n

While a ruling by Judge Torres would not be binding precedent in other cases, Judge Rearden, who is presiding over the Coinbase case, is a new judge and works in the same court in lower Manhattan with Judge Torres.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Murphy believes that Judge Rearden will pay close attention to Judge Torres’ legal reasoning in ruling whether $XRP is a security, and could follow that reasoning when analyzing whether the 13 tokens cited in the Coinbase complaint are securities.<\/span><\/p>\n
