SEC v. Bittrex

The SEC files sues Bittrex, alleging that it is operating as an unregistered securities exchange, broker, and clearing agency. Bittrex settled with the SEC for $24 million dollars without admitting nor denying the allegations.

This case underscores the SEC’s stance on classifying digital assets as securities and digital asset exchanges as securities exchanges, broker and clearing agencies.
