Odaily News Messari CEO and co-founder Ryan Selkis issued a statement on X that he would no longer engage with the U.S. SEC and its chairman Gary Gensler in any formal or informal capacity until the SEC reforms and replaces its leadership. Messari now regards the agency as a hostile opponent, competitor, and redundant federal regulator. In the coming months, Messari will launch a legal battle against this illegal and corrupt agency. The relevant draft will be polished, improved, and then submitted to the SEC and Congress.
