It’s what we expected all along, and it should hopefully create more certainty in the market among what we see as a growing number of large enterprises.&#34; The investigation centered around whether <a href="https://cryptotale.org/crypto-gamblers-earn-busd-through-online-hamster-race-bets/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">BUSD</a> qualified as a security. The SEC argued that it generated profits for both Binance and Paxos, which were partially passed on to users. In contrast, Paxos maintained that BUSD is fully backed by dollar reserves on a 1:1 basis, emphasizing its stablecoin nature without profit expectations traditionally associated with securities.<a href="https://cryptotale.org/sec-ends-busd-investigation-paxos-finds-relief-after-year-long-probe/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Read more on CryptoTale.</a>Visit the links for more information <a href="https://cryptotale.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Website</a> | <a href="https://twitter.com/cryptotalemedia" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Twitter </a>| <a href="https://t.me/cryptotale_news" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Telegram </a>| <a href="https://www.instagram.com/cryptotalenews/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Instagram </a>|
