Alabama Discontinues Legal Actions Against Coinbase

Commissioner Amanda Senn emphasized that while the state has paused its enforcement efforts, it remains dedicated to ensuring market integrity and will not shy away from taking further legal action if required.
“We recognized that avoiding litigation could help us achieve our goals more efficiently,”
Senn explained. She noted that if the commission had progressed further in its case, it might have pursued enforcement.
