Silbert, a fervent advocate of decentralized finance, has identified the primary difficulty in regulating the crypto industry’s centralized middlemen without upsetting other decentralized organizations. Silbert is optimistic that as long as groundbreaking ideas are created and crypto goods continue to advance, both on and off the blockchain, the number of new institutional investors will increase by the end of 2023.

• New York Attorney General Letitia James has filed a lawsuit against cryptocurrency companies Genesis Global, Digital Currency Group (DCG), and Gemini, accusing them of defrauding investors of over $1 billion. The lawsuit seeks restitution for investors and disgorgement of ill-gotten gains, as well as a ban on all three entities from participating in the financial investment industry in New York. The core of the lawsuit is Gemini’s “Gemini Earn” program, which allowed customers to lend cryptocurrency assets, including bitcoin, to Genesis. Gemini and Genesis Capital falsely claimed they had all necessary consents, approvals, and licenses to perform their obligations under Earn. The ongoing legal dispute highlights the complexities within the cryptocurrency sector. Gemini also stands as the largest creditor of Genesis, which filed for bankruptcy protection in January.
