Coinbase and Kraken Form New Crypto Ratings System - YouTube

Channel: The Cryptocurrency News Portal

[5]
hello folks you have reached the
[7]
cryptocurrency portal here on Monday
[9]
September 30th just doing a little
[12]
update about coinbase in kraken these
[15]
two cryptocurrency exchanges have just
[18]
formed a new crypto rating system so
[22]
that's been interesting because
[23]
obviously the SEC Securities and
[26]
Exchange Commission should be doing
[27]
their jobs and the industry in general
[29]
is asking for regulations and just
[32]
begging for regulation so there's
[33]
regulatory clarity but with that said
[36]
some some crypto exchanges and some
[41]
others are gonna look like they're gonna
[42]
try to take it in their own hands so you
[44]
can see the San francisco-based digital
[46]
asset exchanges coinbase and kraken are
[49]
introducing a new points base trading
[51]
system that suggest whether crypto
[54]
currencies are subject to u.s. security
[55]
laws according to coin bases official
[59]
blog they say the following the result
[61]
of the analysis is a score which makes
[64]
it easy for members to synthesize the
[66]
analysis across many tokens and make
[68]
their own independent business decisions
[70]
about whether or not to support or list
[72]
a crypto currency the system uses
[76]
guidance provided by the US Securities
[78]
and Exchange Commission SEC it was
[80]
created by the crypto raiding council
[82]
CRC an organization that lists Anchorage
[85]
dittrick's circle and internet financial
[88]
coinbase drw Cumberland Genesis treating
[91]
great scale investments in Kraken as its
[94]
founding members
[95]
the CRC system aims to provide
[98]
regulatory clarity on whether digital
[100]
currencies like Bitcoin should be
[101]
treated as securities its goal is to
[104]
help companies analyze the legal aspects
[106]
of crypto projects to assist financial
[109]
services firms that are planning to add
[111]
support for certain crypto assets but
[114]
are not sure whether they comply with
[115]
regulatory requirements the framework
[118]
rates crypto currencies on a scale of
[120]
one to five with a reading of one
[122]
assigned to assets have very few
[124]
characteristics of traditional financial
[126]
instruments or do not meet any of the
[128]
criteria of a security a rating of five
[131]
means that the asset is most likely a
[133]
security coin bases management clarifies
[136]
that the council's ratings are
[137]
determined
[138]
independently the ratings are not
[140]
endorsed by the SEC the Commodity
[143]
Futures Trading Commission CFTC or any
[146]
government agency developer team or
[148]
other third party and they are not legal
[151]
advice although the council may seek
[154]
feedback from development teams crypto
[156]
project developers have no influence
[158]
over the analysis process and the
[160]
majority of the ratings have been
[161]
assigned without obtaining information
[162]
directly from developers the
[164]
announcement states Bitcoin BTC litecoin
[167]
LTC and Manero XM are are least likely
[171]
to be subjected to securities laws the
[174]
rating framework suggests the ripple
[176]
associated XRP token appears to fit the
[179]
criteria of a financial security
[180]
according to the rating system even
[182]
though I know that ripple pushes back on
[183]
them on that assumption and their legal
[187]
team is analyzing that now when it goes
[191]
on CRC ratings 1 least likely be a
[193]
security 5 likely to be a security so
[195]
let's go through some of these some of
[196]
these actually I have not heard of Al
[199]
Gore on a lg 2.0 augur our EP is 3.75
[205]
Bitcoin BTC 1.0 chain link link 2.0 dai
[213]
Dai 1.0 d central land mana is 3.75 e OS
[220]
y us 3.75 aetherium or eth 2.0 fum 3.75
[227]
hadera hash grav 3.75 litecoin LTC 1.0
[232]
the loom network 3.75 maker in KR 4.5
[238]
wow that's the highest so far mo narrow
[240]
XM r 1.0 numeraire NM r 2.0 pali math or
[248]
just pali 4.5 stellar x LM 3.75 T's OS x
[255]
TZ 3.75 x RP is 4.0 z cash ze c 2.0 the
[265]
source again was the CRC ratings so
[268]
ripples management is currently fighting
[270]
a lengthy court battle
[271]
faces allegations that XRP is a security
[274]
and could be subjected to u.s. security
[276]
laws meanwhile ripple CEO Brad garland
[279]
house highlights a report from the UK
[281]
financial conduct authority that
[283]
classifies XRP is an exchange token and
[286]
not a security coin based notes in the
[290]
announcement we expect that some ratings
[293]
will change over time and we will accept
[295]
and consider feedback from asset issuers
[297]
when they should want to share
[298]
additional information or clarification
[299]
that may impact an assets reading so
[303]
this is their first pass at it okay
[305]
they're trying to be the main players in
[307]
the space coin base and cracking and the
[309]
others in the initial grouping but at
[312]
least they will continue to take on
[314]
additional information from other assets
[317]
so you know this is a first step this is
[319]
interesting the coin base and Kraken
[321]
jumped out on the limb like this to kind
[323]
of create their own points base the
[326]
rating system so there's the latest from
[329]

[331]
