TREE NEWS update: The SEC reportedly shelved a crypto fundraising rulemaking after a Wall Street group, SIFMA, weighed a legal challenge. The SEC cited scheduling issues, but sources indicate the litigation threat influenced the decision.
SEC Shelved Crypto Fundraising Rulemaking After Wall Street Group Weighed Legal Challenge: Report

It also signals that the agency's crypto agenda is exposed to legal-risk calculations, not just policy preference. Whether similar threats reshape other pending crypto rulemakings is the open question.
