Coinbase argued in a letter to the US Third Circuit Court of Appeals on Wednesday that the SEC has been continuously "delaying" in its ongoing efforts to seek new regulations. Coinbase lawyer Eugene Scalia stated in the letter, "Only an order from this court will prompt the Commission to act." He believes that the latest information provided by the SEC to the court only promises further action without providing more information on its progress. After submitting a petition last year requesting regulatory agencies to draft new rules for digital assets, Coinbase sued the SEC in April. The SEC stated in June that it needed about four months to respond to Coinbase's request.

Coinbase Plans to Target Australia's Self-Managed Pensions Sector with New Service
Coinbase is developing a service that will target Australia's self-managed pensions sector, according to the exchange's Asia-Pacific Managing Director John O'Loghlen. The move comes as self-managed funds in Australia have increasingly held crypto, with nearly A$1 billion ($664 million) allocated to crypto as of the latest data from the Australian Taxation Office. O'Loghlen stated that Coinbase's offering will aim to service these clients on a one-off basis and retain their business. The interest in crypto within the self-managed pensions sector may be driven by the recent momentum gained after spot-ETF approvals in the U.S. and the possibility of similar approvals in Australia this year. -
