Lawsuit Against PAXOS
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is planning to sue crypto firm Paxos Trust Co. over Binance USD token as SEC claimed that BUSD is an unregistered security. According to The Wall Street Journal.
Since Paxos is BUSD‘s issuer, the SEC’s enforcement staff issued a letter to Paxos known as a Wells notice, which the agency uses to inform companies and individuals of a possible enforcement action. After receiving a Wells Notice, the accused has 30 days to react with a legal brief called a Wells Submission, which comprises points demonstrating why the charges should not be pursued against potential defendants, according to the reports.

Peoples Anger Against SEC on Twitter
Ironically, on Twitter, many people showed their anger against SEC.

Some people even asked Gary Gensler, the Chairman of SEC, to step down. See below.

Paxos is targeted by SECA bringing trouble to another crypto exchange giant, Binance. Binance is the most used trading platform of BUSD, which is issued by Paxos. Most trading pairs on this platform are composed of BUSDs. The stability of BUSD has a great impact on Binance as well.
