Mike Novogratz Predicts More US SEC Lawsuits Against Crypto

Mike Novogratz Predicts Delays In Legal Battles

Speaking at a fintech investor conference hosted by Piper Sandler on Wednesday, Novogratz commented that the cases against Coinbase and the Binance exchange, probably won’t be litigated for a few months. “There’s not going to be quick closure on any of this. It makes it very difficult to figure out what you should do”, he added.

Additionally, Novogratz highlighted that the SEC’s lawsuits have categorized numerous major tokens as securities. However, notable cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, and the stablecoin USD Coin were exempted. Speaking on this context, the 58-year-old crypto advocate was quoted as saying:

So if you take the opposite, three-quarters of our industry, even in the US, is available to play.

Uncertainty Brews As Major Firms Face Challenges

The SEC has recently intensified its regulatory actions against the crypto industry, targeting prominent players through successive lawsuits. On Tuesday, the financial watchdog accused Coinbase of operating an illegal digital asset exchange and functioning as an unregistered broker and clearing agency.

A day earlier, the SEC sued Binance Holdings Ltd., alleging mishandling of customer funds, misleading investors and regulators, and violation of securities regulations. Additionally, the former Chief Compliance Officer of Binance was accused of willfully violating US regulations.

Novogratz Claims Institutional Interest Has Dipped

Novogratz emphasized that institutional players are currently hesitant to engage in the crypto space, particularly in the United States. He noted that the industry is witnessing consistent daily buying from retail hodlers who are accumulating cryptocurrencies through popular apps like Square and Robinhood as well as smaller brokerages.

Galaxy Digital, under Novogratz’s leadership, is increasingly shifting its operations offshore in response to the regulatory challenges. Novogratz believes that it’s high time for the crypto industry to demonstrate its practicality and usefulness, especially with the growing interest in artificial intelligence.

He concluded his statement by saying that he does not believe that the crypto narrative is going to garner attention any time soon unless there’s an app on the phone which delivers on the Web3 promise.

Bitcoin: Long-Term Trader RoI Drops To -34%

Image
The market’s crypto assets had quite a dull weekend, and so did Bitcoin. Over the past day, the BTC’s valuation noted a net 0% change and was priced at $16.75k at press time. Over the past 7 days, however, the $322.49 billion market-capped asset noted a 1% downward deviation. Source: CMC Leaving aside the short term, the state of affairs has similarly been monotonous over the mid-term too. It has been more than 6 months since the returns of the average active 5-year traders have been hovering in the negative territory. Data from Santiment revealed that this metric is currently hovering around a historically low level of -34%. As illustrated below, the MVRV [Market Value to Realized Value] Ratio stepped into the negative return territory on June 9, 2022, and has been hovering there ever since. At the first glance, the number might seem to be discouraging, but when viewed from the other perspective, it implies that this set of participants has no incentive to sell ...

AAVE, PEPE, and UNI Are Tokens to Keep an Eye On, Here’s Why

Image
AAVE may retest $100 if the shorter period Moving Average (MA) continues to outpace the longer term MA. PEPE may hold strongly to $0.000001 but it could soon be overbought. UNI’s potential to reach $6 remains very valid based on the AO and MACD. The trio of Aave (AAVE), Pepe (PEPE), and Uniswap (UNI) were part of the top cryptocurrencies bought on exchanges on November 9. This data was disclosed by hitesh.eth, a crypto research specialist on X (formerly Twitter). According to hitesh.eth, PEPE had a net flow of $4.74 million. AAVE has $3.2 million while UNI has $2.64 million. The CEX netflow measures the difference between exchange inflow and outflow.  A positive netflow means there is more accumulation than sell-offs while a negative value of the metric implies that tokens are being dumped than they are bought. In the case, of AAVE, PEPE, and UNI, the analyst noted that it was more of an accumulation. Top 5 Coins Investors bought on Exchanges Yes...
