WINKLEVOSS VICTORY: SEC Drops Gemini Case After 100% User Recovery!🔥
The years-long legal battle between the SEC and Gemini has officially come to an end. On January 23, 2026, the SEC filed to dismiss its enforcement case against the exchange—and with prejudice, meaning this case is closed for good.
Why the SEC Walked Away:
The dismissal follows the successful "in-kind" recovery for all 340,000 Gemini Earn users. Unlike typical bankruptcy settlements paid in "USD value at the time of collapse," Gemini users received their actual crypto back.
The Result: Users didn't just get their money back; they kept all the massive price gains $BTC and $ETH have seen since 2022!
The "Space Station" Era Begins 🛰️
This legal clearing comes at a perfect time for Gemini. Now operating as Gemini Space Station, Inc. (NASDAQ: GEMI), the company has successfully transitioned into a publicly traded powerhouse with a valuation holding steady over $1.1 Billion.
A New Regulatory Vibe in D.C.
Under SEC Chair Paul S. Atkins, the agency is moving away from the "regulation by enforcement" era. Analysts see this dismissal as a signal that the SEC will now prioritize restitution and clarity over endless litigation.
What do you think?
Is the "SEC vs. Crypto" war finally cooling down? With cases against Gemini dropped and a new pro-crypto Chair at the helm, are we heading into a regulatory "Golden Age"?
