Galaxy Digital: Spot Ether ETF Approval in May Highly Unlikely

According to Fortune, the SEC is "actively pursuing legal activity" to classify ETH as a security, and Thorn suggests that the SEC may be considering whether the 2014 Initial Coin Offering (ICO) for Ether was an unregistered offering of securities, rather than just classifying the current secondary trading of ETH as a securities transaction. securities transactions.
