According to market news, Judge Katherine Polk Failla of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York has dismissed the class action lawsuit against Uniswap Labs and its founder Hayden Adams. This ruling ends a long-standing legal attempt to hold DEX developers accountable for "fraud tokens" traded on their platform.In her ruling, the judge stated that holding the creators of smart contract code responsible for third-party abuses of decentralized platforms is "illogical," and emphasized that merely providing a platform does not equate to substantial assistance in fraud. Since the plaintiffs failed to present valid legal claims even after multiple amendments to the complaint, the judge decided to "dismiss the case with prejudice," meaning the plaintiffs cannot sue again on the same grounds.Uniswap's General Counsel Brian Nistler stated that this ruling sets an important precedent for the DeFi industry, reaffirming that developers are not responsible for illegal activities conducted by third parties using open-source code.

A U.S. federal judge ruled to dismiss the remaining state law claims against Uniswap Labs and its founder Hayden Adams, ending a years-long class action lawsuit.The plaintiffs attempted to hold the platform liable for losses incurred from "scam tokens" traded on the Uniswap protocol. Judge Katherine Polk Failla of the Southern District of New York issued the ruling on Monday, dismissing the plaintiffs' second amended complaint "with prejudice," stating that the plaintiffs failed to present a viable legal claim. The court noted that the plaintiffs had multiple opportunities to amend their complaint but still could not demonstrate that Uniswap was responsible for the misconduct of unnamed third-party token issuers.The plaintiffs claimed to have suffered losses due to actions such as "rug pulls" and "pump-and-dump" schemes, arguing that Uniswap "aided fraud" by providing a platform for buyers and sellers to trade. However, the court clearly stated that merely providing a decentralized trading platform does not constitute "substantial assistance" to fraudulent activities. Judge Failla reiterated her previous view that holding developers of smart contract code responsible for the abusive actions of third parties on decentralized platforms is "logically difficult to sustain."The case was initially filed in 2022 and originally included federal securities law claims. The related securities claims were dismissed in 2023, and the Second Circuit Court of Appeals upheld that ruling, remanding the remaining state law claims to the district court for consideration. This ruling signifies the formal conclusion of the case and further tightens the boundaries of state law liability for DeFi platform developers.

YZi Labs issued a letter to the board of CEA Industries stating that CEA Industries' claim of a "secret agreement" with YZi Labs is completely false. The board was already aware of the contents of the agreement, and the law firm Winston & Strawn also provided advice, with board members Alexander Monie, Hans Thomas, and then-CEO of 10X Capital Namdar being involved throughout. The so-called "secret" is merely a misleading statement to the public.The request by CEA to terminate the Strategic Services Agreement (SSA) is equally absurd. YZi Labs terminated the agreement on December 11, 2025, and formally notified the board in writing on December 13. The SSA did not result in any payments and does not affect the negotiations of the 10X asset management agreement.The board is attempting to cover up the facts under the guise of an "investigation," concealing their inaction regarding known circumstances. YZi Labs calls on the board to immediately clarify the misleading statements, fully disclose the related party transactions involving Hans Thomas, and effectively safeguard shareholder interests.

After setbacks in negotiations over cryptocurrency market legislation in the Senate Agriculture Committee, a Democratic senator's aide stated that the Democratic side is still willing to return to the negotiating table to push for a bipartisan compromise.The aide revealed that at the beginning of the new year, Democratic members were "caught off guard" during the negotiations, as the Republican side drafted a new version of the bill without sufficient consultation and originally planned to move directly into the markup process in mid-January. In response, the Democratic side hopes to re-engage with the committee chair, Republican Senator John Boozman's team, before a vote this week to strive for a bipartisan consensus.The Senate Agriculture Committee was originally scheduled to hold a markup and voting session on cryptocurrency legislation this Tuesday, but it has been postponed to Thursday due to severe weather in Washington.

Analysts point out that, given that both the Senate Banking Committee and the Agriculture Committee need to advance their respective versions of the bill, bipartisan cooperation remains a key prerequisite for the smooth progress of the legislation.
