Despite this favorable ruling from the regulator, Consensys developers do not believe that this resolves all the issues faced by decentralized developers affected by recent regulatory actions. It is important to note that Consensys itself remains under SEC investigation.

In this confrontation, the company seeks to secure regulatory clarity for the entire cryptocurrency sector, enabling developers to innovate and create new products without legal obstacles. The SEC has yet to respond to the information released by the MetaMask creators.
