On May 2, 2025, the SEC dismissed its enforcement action against Balina, part of a broader wave of dropped crypto-related cases from prior commissions. This move came amid a shift in regulatory stance, with CT buzzing over whether it signaled a softer approach to crypto enforcement. The dismissal was one of seven high-profile cases axed, including actions against Coinbase and Binance, fueling heated debates on X about future SEC policies. Many in CT saw it as a rare W for the industry after years of legal battles.
