This summer, the judge in charge of the case ruled in Grayscale’s favor, declaring that the SEC’s refusal was “arbitrary and capricious” because the regulator had failed to justify itself.
Today, the SEC is due to re-examine the proposal, and may put new arguments on the table justifying a rejection, which could once again be challenged by the crypto manager in court.
