Esta mañana, OpenSeadijo que había recibido Un Aviso Wells de la Comisión de Bolsa y Valores (SEC) advertía que la agencia estaba a punto de demandar a la plataforma líder de NFT por violación de las leyes de valores. Esta amenaza es la última de una larga serie de medidas similares por parte de la SEC, y la reacción de la industria de las Cripto ha sido feroz y casi uniforme. A continuación, se presenta una pequeña muestra representativa.
Tyler Winklevoss, fundador de Winklevoss Capital Management y de la bolsa Gemini:

The @SECGov is now trying to claim that NFTs are securities. What's next? Baseball cards? Comic books? @GaryGensler's bad faith and un-American war on crypto is expanding. Digital web3 creators and artists are now in the crosshairs. https://t.co/boCbFI0O3p

Sheila Warren, directora ejecutiva del Cripto Council, un grupo comercial (GG = Gary Gensler; liderar un "ejército anticriptomonedas" era una ambición de la senadora Elizabeth Warren (demócrata por Massachusetts) y aliada de Gensler):
Latest round of reg by enforcement spurred by GG, the general of the “anti-crypto army.”

We stand with @opensea and creators everywhere, and commend @dfinzer for his leadership. https://t.co/jqXdGrUlfw
En tercer lugar, tenemos a Jake Chervinsky de Variant Fund, quien argumenta que los NFT no deberían estar cubiertos por leyes inventadas muchas décadas antes (la Ley de Valores se aprobó en 1933):
The SEC has fully lost the plot.

The idea that a financial markets regulator established in the 1930s would have jurisdiction over digital art in the 2020s defies not only common sense but also the SEC's statutory authority.
Thanks to @opensea for fighting the good fight 🫡 https://t.co/7Fxx0Ulv5m
A continuación: Gwart, como se describe a sí mismo "Cripto-Troll de Twitter", comentando las implicaciones más amplias de que la SEC aparentemente ataque la muy expansiva categoría NFT:
If opensea is a securities exchange then so is Etsy and all the hipsters selling pieces of bedazzled driftwood that say “live, laugh, love” for $800 should be thrown in jail too. We just want consistency here.

Ryan Sean Adams, cofundador de Bankless:
The SEC is now planning to sue OpenSea under the claim that NFTs are securities.
— RYAN SΞAN ADAMS - rsa.eth 🦄 (@RyanSAdams) August 28, 2024
So yes @RitchieTorres, apparently Gary Gensler does think tokenized pokemon cards are securities.
OpenSea is now the 6th American born crypto success story under attack by SEC this year - they're…
Vicepresidente de VC Adam Cochrane:
Easily one of the dumbest Hail Marys Gensler has thrown and yet another reason why he has to be out under any new admin.
— Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) (@adamscochran) August 28, 2024
It’s clear NFTs are art.
Can you sell art as a security? Sure see @Masterworks
Does OpenSea do that? No.
And the SEC is also targeting them once they’ve… https://t.co/0PFy7IaiM4
Ex comisionado de la CFTC Brian Quintenz (ahora en a16z):
News of @Opensea receiving a Wells Notice shows plain and simple that the current SEC’s crusade against the crypto industry continues unabated. This is in contrast to what Vice President Harris said two weeks ago announcing her economic agenda: pic.twitter.com/cafsHJ6DhU

El bitcoiner Jameson Lopp argumenta que, si la intención de la SEC es proteger a los inversores, ya es años tarde:
The SEC is swooping in to protect investors from digital art... several years after NFT investors lost all their money. 🤡https://t.co/PgpLQR3AqW
— Jameson Lopp (@lopp) August 28, 2024
Roham Gharegozlou, director ejecutivo de Dapper Labs, que tiene varios proyectos NFT:
NFTs that are not financial in nature are clearly not securities and most lawmakers we interface with understand this — we @dapperlabs are working toward legal clarity for NFTs through forthcoming legislation to be introduced in Congress and support OpenSea in their fight as well https://t.co/zhj4LIetjW

REP Wiley Nickel (demócrata de Carolina del Norte):
Very disappointing to see @SECGov’s continued regulation by enforcement, now targeting #NFT marketplace @opensea.
— Rep. Wiley Nickel (@RepWileyNickel) August 28, 2024
The SEC and Gary Gensler should abandon this path and work with Congress to establish clear and fair regulations that foster innovation and keep jobs in the U.S.
Y finalmente, Anthony Scaramucci, quien dice que Gensler está arruinando los recientes esfuerzos demócratas para hacer aliados en la comunidad Cripto :
Gensler wants Harris to lose the election. https://t.co/GT2PpaGIt8

KuCoin captured a record share of centralised exchange volume in 2025, with more than $1.25tn traded as its volumes grew faster than the wider crypto market.
What to know:
- KuCoin recorded over $1.25 trillion in total trading volume in 2025, equivalent to an average of roughly $114 billion per month, marking its strongest year on record.
- This performance translated into an all-time high share of centralised exchange volume, as KuCoin’s activity expanded faster than aggregate CEX volumes, which slowed during periods of lower market volatility.
- Spot and derivatives volumes were evenly split, each exceeding $500 billion for the year, signalling broad-based usage rather than reliance on a single product line.
- Altcoins accounted for the majority of trading activity, reinforcing KuCoin’s role as a primary liquidity venue beyond BTC and ETH at a time when majors saw more muted turnover.
- Even as overall crypto volumes softened mid-year, KuCoin maintained elevated baseline activity, indicating structurally higher user engagement rather than short-lived volume spikes.
