In a significant development that highlights the growing scrutiny of cryptocurrency operations, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is waging a legal battle against cryptocurrency giants Gemini and Genesis. A federal judge determined that the allegations of selling unregistered securities through the Gemini Earn program were substantial enough to warrant additional court proceedings.

A closer look at the court decision

On March 13, New York District Court Judge Edgardo Ramos issued an important ruling denying Gemini and Genesis’ motion to terminate their lawsuit against the SEC. The decision is based on the judge’s determination that the Gemini Earn program, administered by Genesis and offered by Gemini, potentially involves the offering and sale of unregistered securities. These findings are consistent with the SEC’s position, suggesting that the program meets the criteria for investment covenants under the famous Howey test, the definitive legal benchmark for security identification.

The court’s analysis emphasized that Genesis’ management of common assets and its reliance on discretion and effort had a direct impact on customers’ profit expectations. Additionally, the SEC’s argument that the Gemini Earn contract qualified as a note implying a promise to repay interest on a loan was firmly in line with Judge Ramos’ order.

Meaning of Court Decision

It is important to note that the court’s current position does not guarantee a victory for the SEC, but it paves the way for a more detailed examination of the merits of the case. The parties involved will now engage in evidence gathering to move closer to a resolution.

The lawsuit comes amid increased regulatory focus on cryptocurrencies and increased compliance with securities laws. In particular, Genesis’ announcement last month of a $21 million settlement with the SEC over this lawsuit represents a significant development in the legal case.

The SEC’s initial lawsuit highlights the significant size of the Gemini Earn program, which boasts approximately 340,000 customers and $900 million in assets under management. However, FTX’s collapse and subsequent market volatility halted Gemini Earn withdrawals and triggered a series of financial and legal problems for Genesis and Gemini.

In a notable step toward customer redress, Gemini agreed to return $1.1 billion to Gemini Earn customers through Genesis’ bankruptcy proceedings, following a settlement with New York financial regulators in February.
