SEC's Charges Against Nova Labs: A Case Overview

by Giorgi Kostiuk

a year ago

The US SEC has filed charges against Nova Labs, accusing the company of unregistered securities sales and false partnership claims.

Allegations Against Nova Labs

The SEC claims Nova Labs has been selling unregistered investment contracts since April 2019. The company offered two main products: hotspots, electronic devices that mine Nova Labs crypto assets, and the Discovery Mapping Program, which pays users in MOBILE tokens for providing network data.

Cease and Desist Letters

Nova Labs falsely claimed partnerships with companies like Nestle, Salesforce, and Lime, using their wireless network, which was not true. These companies sent cease-and-desist letters to Nova Labs on discovering the false claims.

Gensler's Last Stand

It is speculated that this could be one of the last actions under Gary Gensler's chairman appointment, who plans to step down on January 20. Gensler is known for his rigorous enforcement approach in the crypto sector.

The regulatory stance may shift under new leadership. The newly elected US president, Donald Trump, supports more crypto-friendly regulatory measures.
