Alright guys, do you remember when the SEC went after Richard Heart and his projects? Well, it's over. The SEC simply dropped the case. They filed it, had until April to submit a new complaint, and... nothing. They chose to drop it. Richard Heart of course declared himself the total winner, and honestly, he's right. The entire case was dismissed by the court, with no charges remaining standing. The interesting thing is that Richard Heart has always said that the SEC was trying to sue the code itself, not just him. And in the end, the court sided with him completely. Of course, HEX meanwhile has lost 99% from its all-time high, so the legal victory didn't save the price. But at least now, those working on these projects no longer have a sword of Damocles hanging over their heads. I think this is an interesting precedent to understand how regulators approach crypto lawsuits. It's not that Richard Heart has become a saint, but legally speaking, he won outright. What do you all think about this SEC decision?
