  • Bitstamp suspended trading of multiple altcoins in response to US SEC’s classification.
  • The exchange has stopped trade for AXS, CHS, MANA, MATIC and more.
  • SEC designates 10 cryptocurrencies, including BNB and SOL, as securities during the Binance case.

The US SEC’s decision has lead to cryptocurrency exchange Bitstamp announcing suspension for multiple altcoins, effective from August 29. Earlier, today Bitstamp tweeted that US users will no longer be able to trade altcoins including Axie Infinity (AXS), Chiliz (CHZ), Decentraland (MANA), Polygon (MATIC), NEAR Protocol (NEAR), The Sandbox (SAND), and Solana (SOL).
