Haha, and the first reply to that tweet is complaining that the SEC is ignoring this while shackling another Coinbase venture. That didn't age well!

Edit: Quoting in case it gets deleted:

>>While the SEC was very swift in shutting down Coinbase Lend for DARING to provide 4% yield

>>They’ll do absolutely nothing about this situation because they are a corrupt organization that wants to see the average American stay poor

it goes to show how the gov. takes this sort of crime seriously, contrary to the popular belief that the SEC is ignoring insider trading. if the pieces are there, they will take action.
