Comments made by the regulator on July 21 in a lawsuit hinted that it might appeal the decision.

The bill would subject DeFi operations to the same requirements as \u201cother financial companies, including centralized crypto trading platforms, casinos, and even pawn shops.\u201d The proposal also makes \u201canyone who controls that project\u201d liable for the use of the DeFi service by sanctioned persons. The bill also set new requirements for operators of crypto kiosks (or ATMs) to prevent their use in money laundering. Kiosk operators would be required to verify the identities of both counterparties in a transaction.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-altcoins-bled-as-bitcoin-gained-dominance-in-q2-coingecko\"><strong>Altcoins \u2018bled\u2019 as Bitcoin gained dominance in Q2: CoinGecko<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The second quarter of the year has been a solid one for Bitcoin\u2019s performance as its market dominance gained against altcoins, which \u201cbled\u201d throughout the period, according to CoinGecko\u2019s industry report. Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH) continued to build their market share over the past months, while Binance Coin (BNB), XRP (XRP), and Cardano (ADA) suffered double-digit losses over the quarter. DeFi tokens were hit particularly hard during the quarter, with Uniswap (UNI), Chainlink (LINK) and Lido (LDO) taking double-digit losses as well.
