Director and Head of Blockchain and Digital Assets, Matt Green, comments on the news that the UK Competition Appeal Tribunal has agreed to certify a claim for investors to sue four crypto exchanges over their decision to delist the Bitcoin Satoshi Vision (BSV) cryptocurrency.
Matt commented: “This case lends itself to a wider narrative with two main camps: those who believe in BSV as Satoshi’s true vision for Bitcoin and those who do not.
“The claimant class may seek to justify both price and broader adoption issues on market manipulation and competition interference, in the form of delisting, by those who want to suffocate BSV. Whether there is a right to claim concerted market manipulation or whether this is simply private companies delisting a token to match market demand is likely to be a vital matter in this dispute.”
