According to data from CoinMarketCap, the prices of HNT, IOT, and MOBILE grew around 10% in the past 24 hours. The reason behind the spike is the dismissal of a long-running lawsuit with the Securities and Exchange Commission of the United States.
The Medium post by Helium dated April 11, 2025 says that the dismissal of a lawsuit by the SEC over the allegations of selling unregistered has become a win for Helium and The People’s Network.
With the dismissal, the firm said, “All compatible Helium Hotspots and the distribution of HNT, IOT, and MOBILE tokens through the Helium Network are not securities.”
Gary’s departure has overturned the lawsuit filed under his leadership
Gary Gensler, the former chief of the SEC, left the commission before completing his term as he was quite worried and uncertain after the historic victory of Donald Trump in the presidential elections held in the United States in 2024.
With departure of Gary the additional charge of the Securities and Exchange Commission chair was held by Mark Uyeda but most recently the Trump administration has appointed Paul Atkins as the new chair of the commission.
The X post of Helium dated April 11, 2025, quotes, “ With this chapter finally closed, Helium, DePIN, and crypto can now move forward with full confidence, accelerating real-world adoption and innovation in the industry.”
Since the beginning of this year till writing the Securities and Exchange Commission has dismissed lawsuits against Coinbase, Kraken, Robinhood, Consensys, MetaMask and Ripple including a few others.
Despite the dismissal of the lawsuit against Nova Labs, there is no mention of the dismissal of the penalty that the commission has imposed on the firm, and it agreed to pay the same amount.
The archive of lawsuit against Nova Labs notes that the firm has exaggerated its partnership with leading firms to gain more and more customers and funds.
It is worth noting that after the re-entry of Trump in the United States, political stance has given birth to the reformations of the crypto enforcement unit, which has opened a new path for the digital asset market in the U.S.
