The SEC is finally suspending its investigation into Ethereum
The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is ending its investigation into whether Ethereum (ETH) is a security.
Via a post on X (Twitter) by Concensys, developer of Ethereum , said that the Securities and Exchange Commission's Enforcement Division has notified them of the end of their investigation into Ethereum 2.0.
This means that the SEC will not bring charges alleging that ETH sales are securities transactions. The company takes this turn of events as a major victory for Ethereum developers, technology providers and industry participants.
Consensys also said the SEC's decision came after the company sent a letter to the agency on June 7 asking whether it would end its investigation because the regulator approved spot ETH exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in May, which they say is based on the fact that ETH is a commodity.
