The dichotomy between the two judges' decisions underscores the persisting uncertainty in the landscape of cryptocurrency regulations.

A Twitter debate has erupted, speculating that Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) might be involved with the BALD memcoin rugpull. Blockchain analysts delved into the developer’s on-chain history and discovered a connection between the wallet address deploying the BALD token and ETH funding from wallets linked to FTX and Alameda Research.
