ConsenSys proposes four key reasons to support Ethereum's non-security status The US SEC's re-examination of whether Ethereum belongs to the securities category has caused controversy. ConsenSys proposes four reasons to support Ethereum's non-security status: 1. Historical position: The former SEC director said in 2018 that Ethereum is not a security, and this historical position provides a solid foundation for its non-security status. 2. CFTC classification: The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has long regarded Ethereum as a commodity, which is consistent with the SEC's position. 3. Decentralization and openness: Ethereum's decentralized architecture makes it different from securities, all information is publicly accessible, and it does not have the characteristics of insider information asymmetry. 4. The irrelevance of the consensus mechanism transition: The recent consensus mechanism transition from PoW to PoS does not affect the core essence of Ethereum, so it should not be a reason for reclassification. These factors together support Ethereum's non-security status in the regulatory community. In response to the SEC's re-examination, the industry and the community continue to pay attention to Ethereum's positioning. #consensys #ETH(以太坊) #CFTC

Will SEC's investigation into MetaMask trigger a new round of regulatory turmoil?In the field of cryptocurrency, regulatory issues have always attracted much attention. Recently, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has once again stirred up a storm, this time targeting MetaMask, a subsidiary of Consensys. It is reported that the SEC issued a Wells Notice to Consensys, accusing MetaMask of operating as an unlicensed broker. This news immediately attracted widespread attention and heated discussions in the cryptocurrency circle. From the time Uniswap received the Wells Notice on April 11 to now, the regulatory situation in the cryptocurrency industry seems to be getting more intense. As an Ethereum infrastructure development company, Consensys has also been involved in this storm recently and has become the subject of an SEC investigation. Consensys not only refuted the SEC's allegations, but also took the initiative to file a lawsuit in federal court in an attempt to defend its rights. This move is not only about the power struggle between Consensys and the SEC, but may also affect the future development of the entire cryptocurrency industry.

SEC Unexpectedly Ends Consensys Lawsuit: Positive Signals for Ethereum? #Consensys , the software development company behind Ethereum's MetaMask wallet and Layer 2 network Linea, stated that the SEC is expected to withdraw its lawsuit against the firm. Joe Lubin, founder of Consensys and co-founder of Ethereum, confirmed on X that #SEC has agreed to withdraw the lawsuit after receiving approval from partners. "We have always been ready to fight to the end, but welcome this outcome," Lubin wrote. Previously, the SEC had sued Consensys over the staking feature of #MetaMask , claiming that the firm was offering unregistered securities. However, the decision to withdraw the lawsuit came right after the SEC unexpectedly approved the spot Ethereum ETF, implicitly accepting $ETH as not securities. This change reflects the SEC's policy adjustment since President Donald Trump took office. The agency has begun active dialogue with the industry and has withdrawn lawsuits against Coinbase, Robinhood, Uniswap Labs, and OpenSea. Although the SEC has not publicly confirmed the withdrawal of the lawsuit, this development is a positive signal for Ethereum and the crypto industry in general, especially for decentralized finance (DeFi) services. {future}(ETHUSDT) {future}(UNIUSDT) {spot}(BNBUSDT) #anhbacong
