Following the asset management firm\u2019s application, various companies like <\/span>Grayscale<\/span><\/a>, Ark Invest, WisdomTree, <\/span>VanEck<\/span><\/a>, and others followed suit. Despite consistent approval delays by the US SEC, BlackRock utilized the time to revise its Spot Bitcoin ETF filing, incorporating <\/span>cash redemptions<\/span><\/a> to improve the fund\u2019s approval odds.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Sam Bankman-Fried Fraud Conviction<\/h2>\n

Founder and former CEO of failed crypto exchange, FTX, <\/span>Sam Bankman-Fried<\/span><\/a> was found guilty of all seven counts of fraud, conspiracy, and money laundering on November 2, 2023.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The 31-year-old billionaire was convicted unanimously by the <\/span>jury<\/span><\/a> for misappropriating billions of dollars of customer funds and defrauding lenders to subsidiary company, Alameda Research. Bankman-Fried could potentially face a maximum of <\/span>115 years in prison.<\/span><\/a> His sentencing date is scheduled for March 28, 2024.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

CZ Resignation From Binance Causes A Stir In Crypto Community<\/h3>\n

One of the most shocking events of 2023, saw the founder of Binance, <\/span>Changpeng Zhao <\/span><\/a>officially stepping down from his role as the CEO of Binance on November 21, 2023.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The former Binance CEO <\/span>pleaded guilty<\/span><\/a> to breaking US anti-money laundering laws and resigned as part of a $4.3 billion settlement by the United States Department of Justice (DOJ).<\/span><\/p>\n

CZ has also been restricted from leaving the United States until his court case is over as the court believes his vast resources make him a potential flight risk. And returning to Dubai which does not share an extradition treaty with the US could make things problematic.<\/span><\/p>\n

XRP Ruling In SEC Case<\/h3>\n
Coming as a major victory in a three-year-long legal battle between Ripple and the SEC, US District <\/span>Judge Analisa Torres ruled in favor<\/span><\/a> of Ripple on July 13, 2023. The ruling declared that programmatic sales of XRP did not qualify as a security.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
This decision offered much-needed regulatory clarity for XRP, enabling the cryptocurrency to resume trading on major crypto exchanges that had delisted it during the <\/span>SEC\u2019s 2020 lawsuit.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n
Grayscale And Coinbase Rage Against The SEC<\/h3>\n
On August 29, 2023, world-leading crypto asset management company <\/span>Grayscale won its lawsuit <\/span><\/a>against the US SEC. The D.C.

Subsequently, the <\/span>SEC sued Coinbase <\/span><\/a>on June 6, 2023, alleging that the crypto exchange had violated securities laws by operating as an unregistered broker.
