I can't believe anyone hosts their stuff on Medium. It's an increasingly trash platform; you go to some website.com and then get n announcement that you've viewed too many medium stories this month. That didn't happen with this specific story, but the fact that Coindesk a relying on someone else to host their blog creates a poor impression - why would I trust their security or anything else, before I get near their financial products? Strange decision.

Incidentally, I do think the SEC owes people clarity in matters of legal reasoning, but am not sure Coinbase is being fully forthright with readers here based on various other observations in the thread.
