This is the third category of crypto tokens that the SEC has cleared as non-securities. In March, the regulator greenlighted proof-of-work (PoW) or mining systems like Bitcoin [BTC] and Dogecoin [DOGE] as non-security. 

Similarly, in May, the SEC said proof-of-stake (PoS) chains like Ethereum[ETH], Solana [SOL] and liquid staking tokens like JitoSOL are non-security.

The post This U.S. politician’s suspicious stock trade just returned over 200% in weeks appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. United States Representative Cloe Fields has seen his stake in Opendoor Technologies (NASDAQ: OPEN) stock return over 200% in just a matter of weeks. According to congressional trade filings, the lawmaker purchased a stake in the online real estate company on July 21, 2025, investing between $1,001 and $15,000.
