ConsenSys said that SEC closed an investigation into Ethereum 2.0
ConsenSys, a developer of MetaMask and Linea, announced that the Securities and Exchange Commission’s enforcement division has notified the blockchain company that it is closing its investigation into Ethereum 2.0. SEC will not bring charges alleging that sales of ETH are securities transactions. The SEC decision came after Consensys sent a letter requesting clarification of ether’s category in the approval of spot ETH ETFs.
In April, Consensys had filed a lawsuit against the SEC, in opposition to the agency’s categorization of ether as a financial security. Consensys allegedly received a wells notice from the SEC in April, which meant the agency planned on bringing an enforcement action against it.
