Uniswap Labs Lawsuit talks are in the news on Thursday as the cryptocurrency exchange operator announced that it had received a Wells Notice from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
A note from Wells lets Uniswap Labs know that the SEC is considering filing a lawsuit against the company. Uniswap investor Hayden Adams warned that this legal battle could take years and reach the Supreme Court.
Here is part of Adams’ statement regarding Uniswap’s possible lawsuit be X post.
“I am confident that the products we offer are legal and that our work is on the right side of history. But it has been clear for some time that the SEC has chosen to focus on attacking long-standing good players like Uniswap and Coinbase rather than working on creating clear, sound rules. All while bad actors like FTX are passing by.”
What’s behind the possible Uniswap lawsuit?
The SEC has its sights set on both decentralized finance and crypto companies recently. This comes as the agency seeks to crack down on these companies. Given this latest news, it is likely that Uniswap Labs will be charged with violating federal securities laws.
