Judge rules Jenner memecoin not a security
The Block·
A federal judge has dismissed a class action lawsuit alleging that Caitlyn Jenner's memecoin, $JENNER, was an unregistered security. The ruling clarifies that the memecoin does not meet the criteria for an investment contract under the Howey Test, a key legal precedent for determining if an asset is a security. This decision could have implications for how other memecoins and digital assets are classified in future legal challenges, potentially offering a shield against similar security claims for certain types of cryptocurrency projects.
