ConsenSys: Today, we are pleased to announce a major victory for Ethereum developers, technology providers, and industry participants: the SEC's enforcement division has notified us that it is closing its investigation into #Ethereum 2.0.
This means that the SEC will not be filing charges alleging that the sale of $ETH constitutes a securities transaction. Here is the official letter from the SEC to ConsenSys regarding #ETH . They are quite hedging/apologetic in their notice - but it is relatively unusual for the SEC to specifically inform companies that they have closed an investigation. They are not obligated to do so.
