Description
The SEC may sue Uniswap for allowing users on their blockchain software to directly swap digital assets, constituting an unregistered securities exchange.
Legal Significance
Uniswap Labs contends that its protocol doesn't qualify as an exchange and, therefore, shouldn't be regulated by the SEC. This potential suit would clarify what falls under SEC regulation.
