I doubt the SEC has a strong case here. I wouldn’t worry about anything for now

    RH has been working hard to get regulatory approval, similar to Coinbase. I don’t think anything drastic can be done if they are found to be in the wrong, considering they’ve been proactive with getting regulation in place

    They've been reprimanded by a federal judge for blatant extrajudicial power grabs like this one. None of their huge cases claiming various cryptocurrencies are securities have succeeded, except in the super cut-and-dry cases like ICOs and centralized schemes that clearly pass the Howey test.

        That's in the specific context of staking and promising returns, not crypto in general.

          > in the specific context of staking and promising returns, not crypto in general Every ruling in the lower courts on these issues will be narrow. The SEC has been on a winning streak recently. The only major kerfuffle was the judge not ruling that XRP is a security, though Torres still ruled in the SEC's favour broadly, and the ruling has been widely criticised (not by industry people, but senior lawyers) for being likely to be overturned on appeal.
