This reminds me a lot of a different Armstrong repeatedly saying that he couldn’t be doping because he was the most drug-tested athlete in history. In reality, the law is perfectly clear and hasn’t changed in decades, so what would giving clarity even mean?

Clarity can include explaining how some laws apply in situations relevant to Coinbase or crypto currencies. Sometimes dots need to be connected.

If the law is perfectly clear, is ETH a security or a commodity? Gensler can't even answer that question.
