On February 25, 2025, Uniswap Labs announced the closure of the SEC investigation without disciplinary measures. This event marked an important milestone for the DeFi community.
Background of Uniswap Labs Case
The investigation against Uniswap Labs began in 2021 under Gary Gensler's leadership. The company received notice of potential legal breaches but, following Gensler's departure, the SEC changed its approach, closing the case without sanctions. This was positively seen as a victory for decentralized finance.
Political Influence on the Crypto Market
After Donald Trump's victory, the approach to digital assets changed, with regulators becoming less proactive in taking actions. However, some experts believe that recent SEC decisions may be influenced by politics, impacting the long-term goals of cryptocurrencies.
Achievements in the Crypto Ecosystem
The cryptocurrency market capitalization stands at $2.94 trillion, with a 2.31% increase. Notable entities include XDC Network, Celestia, among others. Berachain recently surpassed Arbitrum in terms of TVL, reaching $3 billion and sparking interest and price growth in BERA.
The closure of the Uniswap Labs case marks positive changes in attitudes towards crypto markets. However, political involvement may distort the long-term goals of digital assets.
