Uniswap founder accuses Citadel of trying to use the SEC to crack down on DeFi developers

On December 4, Uniswap founder Hayden Adams posted on social media stating that Citadel Securities CEO Ken Griffin, after previously interfering with Constitution DAO, is now pushing the U.S. SEC to regulate DeFi protocol developers as centralized intermediaries.

Adams said that Citadel has long lobbied behind the scenes, and mocked its claim that DeFi lacks "fair access" as absurd, reflecting traditional market makers' rejection of open-source, decentralized liquidity mechanisms.
