CNBC reached out to the SEC about the recent batch of Wells notices sent to crypto firms, and an agency spokesperson declined to comment. Exchanges, both centralized and decentralized, would be forced to choose between registering with the SEC, or delisting ether altogether. watch nowBoth Consensys and Uniswap suggest the SEC's broad approach to classifying securities may be outdated. "The SEC is arguing that the Uniswap protocol is an unregistered securities exchange, and that the Uniswap interface and wallet are both unregistered broker brokers," Ammori said. Uniswap argues in its response to the SEC that the majority of its trading volume is obvious nonsecurities, like ether, bitcoin and stablecoins.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission is expected to make a key decision on approving ether exchange-traded funds next week. Edelman, an investor and personal finance author, thinks there needs to be an emphasis on regulations to protect people from crypto scams. We've seen the bitcoin ETFs come to market. We've seen the great things they've done for investors — lowering costs, improving regulation, improving sort of safety, security and peace of mind.," Hougan said. The two ether ETF proposals, submitted by VanEck and ARK Investments/21Shares, are set to be approved or denied this month.

Some are practicing something called "AI washing," which Securities and Exchange Commission chair Gary Gensler explained in a video includes "false claims to investors by those purporting to use those new technologies." In reality, what AI washing leads to is a breakdown of confidence between vendors and their consumers, enterprise partners and investors. Bates says so-called button-pushing applications are AI washing, too. "These prompts that are being sold as AI companies, they have to be maintained and monitored and adjusted in order to work." Stewart says even 80–90% gross profitability for a fully AI company with limited human intervention is standard.

Securities and Exchange Commission Chair Gary Gensler on Tuesday refused to comment on speculation of whether Trump Media is a funding organ for Donald Trump's presidential campaign. "What's important is that their disclosures are accurate and that folks aren't in the market front-running or trading on insider information." As the majority shareholder, Trump stands to gain the largest financial boost from DJT upswings. On Friday, Trump's stake added 36 million more shares to his existing 78.8 million, due to a clause in the company's contract that unlocks bonus shares as the stock hits certain checkpoints. Given that bump, Trump's stake had a paper value of over $5 billion at Tuesday's market open.

An initial target of the SEC under a second Trump administration would be to roll back the new climate disclosure rules, these people explained. Gensler and the SEC adopted a rule in March requiring large publicly traded companies to disclose their levels of greenhouse gas emissions. Gensler argues greenhouse gas emission levels and other climate related data have a material impact on businesses, and investors deserve to know this information. But an SEC chaired by a Trump appointed Republican would likely remove these Biden-era disclosure requirements, these people said. The prospect of a Trump pullback on the SEC's climate disclosure rules is also tied to the former president's dislike of environmental, social and governance investment standards, some of these people explained.

And that's, that's the whole idea of it. Tom ChittySo if I go and buy bitcoin, the bitcoin I buy is fresh bitcoin that's been mined, not someone who's selling bitcoin is that right?

PARIS — Issuers of spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds cast doubt over the short-term likelihood of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission approving such a product for the cryptocurrency ether . The regulator has a late-May deadline to conclude its review on an ether ETF. That comes after the SEC in March delayed its original deadline for a decision on the ether ETF application. Enthusiasm has been mounting among the crypto community for an ether ETF, ever since the SEC approved the first spot bitcoin ETFs in January. This complicates matters for an ether ETF.

Chances are, you're not going to find your dream job in your 20s. Hoskins spent her 20s working in different cities and industries after graduating with a degree in architecture from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Experimenting with different careers in your 20s can help you develop your skills, discover new passions, or, in Hoskins' case, return to old ones. That decision was influenced, in part, by one of Hoskins' favorite childhood hobbies: flipping through architecture magazines and doodling designs based on the spreads. A native of Chicago, Hoskins says she grew up with plenty of exposure to the striking buildings that make up the city's downtown and pages of Architectural Record, a magazine her mother often brought home.

The funding bonanza over AI could add lots of hype and "maybe some grifting," says Demis Hassabis. "In a way, AI's not hyped enough but in some senses it's too hyped," the Google DeepMind chief said. "In a way, AI's not hyped enough but in some senses it's too hyped," Hassabis the Financial Times in a story published Sunday. The fervor amongst investors for AI, Hassabis told the Financial Times, reminded him of "other hyped-up areas" like crypto. "Some of that has now spilled over into AI, which I think is a bit unfortunate," Hassabis told the outlet.

The Securities and Exchange Commission scored a major win in its lawsuit against Coinbase on Wednesday, as a judge ruled that its claim that the cryptocurrency exchange engaged in unregistered sales of securities could be heard by a jury at trial. Coinbase shares fell around 2% on news of the ruling in Manhattan federal court rejecting its bid to dismiss the SEC's complaint. The regulator first filed suit against Coinbase in June, alleging the company was acting as an unregistered broker and exchange. "The Court finds that the SEC adequately alleges that Coinbase, through its Staking Program, engaged in the unregistered offer and sale of securities," Failla wrote. In June, SEC Chair Gary Gensler said that trading platforms like Coinbase "call themselves exchanges" but were "commingling a number of functions."

The Securities and Exchange Commission's chair, Gary Gensler, recently warned about "AI washing," or companies giving off a false impression that they're using AI so they can amp up investors. And while some companies are simply exaggerating the tech they do legitimately use, others have taken it a step further. Most companies aren't being accused of breaking the law with their AI chatter, but they're definitely posturing around it. An analysis from Goldman Sachs found that 36% of S&P 500 companies mentioned AI in their fourth-quarter earnings calls, a record high. Even the Big Tech companies that are really moving and shaking in AI are on shifty ground at times.

It's no secret that people aren't going to the office as much as they used to. The "biggest mistake" companies make when thinking about the office itself, and its role in enticing people back in, says Cohen, is not understanding what their employees actually want from the office. "What many companies don't realize is that the office needs to give employees the space and resources for both collaborative and deep focus work, not one or the other," he explains. "What creates a great office experience, one that employees look forward to, is giving them a sense of choice," she explains. The businesses that don't adapt to employees' evolving preferences and needs, says Cohen, could see their offices become obsolete.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Wednesday voted to adopt new rules that will require most publicly traded companies to disclose climate-related risks in their registration statements and annual reports. The rule proposal was first made in March 2022, but the SEC extended the public comment period several times. He noted the SEC has continuously updated its disclosure requirements over the years, including those related to environmental risks. SEC staff members have noted that nearly 40% of publicly traded companies already disclose information about climate-related risk in their annual reports, but there is no common reporting framework. The final rules would require companies to disclose the following:

CNN —The Securities and Exchange Commission voted on Wednesday to pass a scaled-down climate reporting rule for public companies after the agency’s initial proposal was met with backlash from business leaders and some lawmakers. The finalized rule will require public companies to share how climate change might hurt their businesses. Some public companies will have to share how much they pollute, though the new rules no longer require companies to report some greenhouse gas emissions. A controversial proposalThe source of much of the controversy surrounded a proposal to require companies to disclose scope 3 emissions, which are emissions a company is indirectly responsible for. The new rules also require companies to share physical risks posed by climate change, including the threat of rising natural disasters like wildfires or hurricanes.

Win Mcnamee | Getty Images News | Getty Images'A sensible rule to protect investors'"Climate risk is financial risk," Elizabeth Derbes, director of financial regulation and climate risk for the Natural Resources Defense Council, said in a written statement. "This is a sensible rule to protect investors: it gives them access to clear, comparable, relevant information on the measures companies are taking to manage climate risks and opportunities," Derbes said. Overall, transparency around climate risk may be essential for investors to gauge if a company's stock is worth holding or if its stock price is reasonable, experts said — for example, is it too expensive given high exposure to climate risk, or perhaps fairly priced considering it's well positioned? For many businesses, Scope 3 emissions account for more than 70% of their carbon footprint, Deloitte estimates. Instead, the final rule will require companies require Scope 1 and 2 emissions if they're deemed material to investors.

It brings the U.S. closer to the European Union and California, which moved ahead earlier with corporate climate disclosure rules. The narrowed rule doesn’t include requirements that companies report some indirect emissions known as Scope 3. And small or emerging companies don’t have to report emissions at all. The SEC has said many companies already report such information, and the SEC’s rule would standardize such disclosures. More than 5,300 companies will be required to report their emissions under the California rule, according to Ceres, a nonprofit that works with investors and companies to address environmental challenges.
