Paul Grewal, Coinbase's Chief Legal Officer joins Ryan and David to discuss why Coinbase is Suing the SEC. Why did they choose to respond to the SEC's Wells Notice to Coinbase in the way they did? Is Gary playing 4D chess or is he just embarrassing and pushing U.S. crypto innovation outside of the U.S.?
Tune in to hear Paul's thoughts and much more.
