Bittrex Wants Its $24 Million Settlement Back, Now That the SEC Is Pro-Crypto

Bittrex, a now-shuttered crypto exchange, previously settled with the SEC in 2023 over accusations of offering unregistered securities and is now seeking to reclaim its $24 million settlement. The move comes as the SEC appears to be adopting a pro-crypto stance. Bittrex's actions are likely driven by the perceived shift in regulatory attitude.
