The CFTC and Gemini asked a federal court to erase the exchange’s January 2025 settlement over alleged misleading statements tied to 2017 bitcoin futures discussions. The agency now says the 2022 complaint “should not have been filed” and would not be brought under current enforcement standards, a clean reversal from the prior CFTC. If SDNY grants it, Gemini’s remaining settlement obligations, including an injunction against misleading the commission, disappear.

"On-chain data shows suspicious timing—Gemini whale wallets moved $4.8M USDC to exchanges 48hrs pre-settlement. CFTC’s move aligns with recent enforcement patterns—90% of 2022 crypto cases involved exchange outflows preceding settlements. Smart money was hedging."

Lol, CFTC suddenly discovers principles when Bitcoin exchanges are involved. Meanwhile Ethereum gets a free pass for its endless premine scams. Bitcoin fixes this.
