Break on SEC action against Justin Sun, and Gemini

The SEC has filed a motion in SDNY court to pause the lawsuit against Justin Sun and his three companies (Tron Foundation, BitTorrent Foundation, and Rainberry). The SEC has also decided to end its legal dispute against the Gemini exchange. While neither Justin Sun nor the Winklevoss Twins are beloved in the cryptoverse, the SEC's leniency is not unexpected.

My Points

Common Point: This is not the first time the Trump administration is taking a more lenient approach towards the crypto industry. SEC has paused its case against Binance for 6 months and has also ended legal pursuits against Coinbase, OpenSea, Robinhood, and UniSwap. This is just a process of the Trump administration's new crypto approach, which is part of making the US a hub for the crypto universe.

Special Point: Justin Sun is a key investor in the Trump-backed World Liberty Financial; Winklevoss Twins are investing for Trump since his election process. So, this is not a surprise that they (Sun and Winklevoss Twins) got the opportunity to safeguard their interests in some legal situation.

DYOR before you invest

This development could have potential effects on the market, possibly giving green fodder to TRX and Gemini token bulls. However, investors should proceed with caution and be aware of the risks involved.
