In the case of the SEC against Telegram and the proposed crypto cryptocurrency, Federal Judge P. Kevin Castel held the exchange on the afternoon of January 6.
Telegram’s counsel, Alex Drylewski of Skadden Arps, on January 6, argued that the production of bank records would require consideration of the privacy rights of financial partners in 30 or more jurisdictions.
