For several months, the crypto industry has been under pressure. The culprit is the heavy regulatory burden imposed by Gary Gensler, the head of the SEC.

Gary Gensler faced the press to explain the serious accusations brought by the SEC against the exchanges Coinbase and Binance.
Last Tuesday, the SEC, through its chairman, Gary Gensler, filed legal proceedings against the crypto platform Coinbase. The case could see its first twist as Coinbase claims to have evidence of potential bad faith on Gary Gensler's part in this matter.
“We don't need more digital currencies,” said Gary Gensler on CNBC. Is this why the SEC is targeting both Binance and Coinbase, which have hundreds of millions of crypto investors? In any case, the heads of these exchanges declare that they will respond to the SEC's attacks.
The Binance-SEC case seems to be progressing very quickly. Just one day after filing a complaint against the crypto exchange, the regulator is taking a new step.

While XRP has been under attack by the SEC for the past two years, this absence raises numerous questions. Why is XRP missing from this list? Is it a deliberate strategy on the part of the SEC? What could be the repercussions of this decision?
What does the SEC really want by shaking up Binance? The collapse of the crypto industry or its regulation? Many see Gary Gensler and his team's recent initiatives as developing a visceral hatred towards the cryptosphere. In addition to targeting the world's largest exchange, they have also decided to go after 10 tokens traded on the secondary market, such as Cardano's ADA.
