Tezos investors win lawsuit

A long-running lawsuit that suggested that Tezos’ record-breaking $232 million ICO (initial coin offering) was an unregistered securities sale has been officially settled in court. The project’s founders Arthur and Kathleen Breitman agreed to settle the case this Friday. 

As per the couple’s representative, the Tezos Foundation paid the entire $25 million settlement amount. Lead plaintiff Trigon Trading claimed that the settlement saved a lot of time for both the parties involved and the court since it mitigated the need for all the subsequent research work that would have been needed to determine the actual regulator status of Tezos’ offerings.
