Coinbase renews its push for tokenized securities as the Trump administration emboldens the crypto industry

As President Donald Trump ends Bitcoin because they would be subject to securities laws.

Coinbase originally sought to bring tokenized securities to the American market in 2021 through an S1 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As part of the filing, Haas said, the company tried to go public with a tokenized version of its own stock, COIN. But the plan was halted by Biden’s SEC chair, crypto skeptic Gary Gensler.

The company “could not get it over the line with the SEC at the time,” Haas said in a statement to Fortune on Thursday. “We would have loved to see a crypto-native version of our stock as the first major crypto company to go public.” 

Coinbase’s renewed talk of tokenized securities comes as the SEC, led by interim chair and industry-friendly commissioner Mark Uyeda, ends a series of lawsuits and investigations into crypto companies originally initiated under the Biden administration. Last month, the SEC agreed to dismiss a lawsuit against Coinbase alleging the company had been operating an unregistered brokerage and was offering unregistered securities.

Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong is also on an exclusive list of executives attending the White House’s first crypto summit hosted by Trump this Friday, where government officials and industry leaders are set to discuss crypto policy.
