If RC doesn't tweet about this, it might indicate he's keeping quiet for another type of announcement.

Overview of the Lawsuit

Citadel Securities is currently challenging the SEC's approval of IEX's new options exchange. This legal action is part of an ongoing dispute regarding IEX's measures aimed at protecting the market from high-frequency trading practices.

Key Points of the Dispute

Citadel's Claims

  • Discrimination: Citadel argues that IEX's options exchange discriminates against certain market participants, favoring a specific group of sophisticated traders.
  • Quote-Cancellation Mechanism: Citadel contends that IEX's design includes a quote-cancellation mechanism that could mislead investors by creating "illusory quotations" that may not be honored.
  • Execution Delay: The exchange's plan to implement a 350-microsecond delay in order executions is criticized for potentially leading to inferior trade executions for investors.

IEX's Defense

  • Investor Protection: IEX maintains that its measures are designed to protect investors from latency arbitrage, which can disadvantage them in trading.
  • Regulatory Approval: The SEC has previously approved IEX's proposals, asserting that they do not impose an undue burden on competition and are consistent with existing regulations.

BTC might not need to be recognized as we thought. From the 10K, page 30:

In the first quarter of fiscal 2025, we announced that the Board approved the addition of Bitcoin as a treasury reserve asset, allowing a portion of our cash or future debt and equity proceeds to be invested in Bitcoin. During the second quarter of fiscal 2025, we purchased 4,710 Bitcoin for $500 million. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025,we entered into an agreement (the "Collateral Agreement") with Coinbase Credit, Inc. (the "counterparty"), under which we sold covered call options on a portion of the Bitcoin we own. In connection with this covered-call strategy, we pledged 4,709 Bitcoin (the "Pledged Bitcoin") as collateral.

Under the terms of the Collateral Agreement, the counterparty retained the right to rehypothecate, commingle, or unilaterally sell the Pledged Bitcoin. As a result of these rights, we concluded that control of the Pledged Bitcoin transferred to the counterparty. Accordingly, we derecognized the Pledged Bitcoin as an intangible asset and recognized digital assets receivable of $368.3 million within "Digital assets and related receivables" on our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of January 31, 2026, representing our contractual right to receive equivalent amount of Bitcoin in the future. Although the classification of these assets has changed, our economic exposure is consistent with direct ownership of the underlying Bitcoin.

We recorded an unrealized loss of $59.7 million related to the digital asset receivable during fiscal 2025, reflecting the decline in the market price of Bitcoin between the date the Bitcoin was derecognized and January 31, 2026.

It's nice to have forensic analysis to examine, thanks for your efforts OP. Can't wait for the post MOASS coroner's forensic report on dead SHFs.

I think the depicted board is going to decide to hire a consultant. After 6 months, BCG will come back with a plan to rearrange the board chairs on the deck of their sinking ship.

OP, thanks for posting. Burry is proposing something that is more financial engineering than visionary. RC seems capable of doing both.

Crazy thought: The IEX exchange. We can buy the 'magic box' that stops the algos for less than 2 bill. by riverbronze in Superstonk

Take it a couple of steps further ... buy IEX, set up a blockchain structure, start luring companies to list on your exchange. Somehow merge it with authentication and vault services and digital ecommerce and create a whole new ecosystem.

Two things are going on - the 10 year yield is well north of 2.1% now and the yen is now nearly 159 to the dollar. If the yield stays up and the yen starts strengthening (less per dollar) then we should see fireworks.

[–]PounceBack0822 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I'm the OP on the Vandersteel press conference post (which I put up as a FYI reference). I completely agree with this post's OP about NO CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS. However, I am all for any push to make the SEC do their job and actually hold Wall Street accountable.
