Immutable receives a Wells Notice from the SEC over allegations that IMX tokens are securities.
OpenSea, also under SEC scrutiny, defends NFTs as non-securities, dedicating $5M for legal defense.
Renowned blockchain gaming firm Immutable recently revealed that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) sent a Wells Notice indicating its intention to seek enforcement action for claimed securities law violations.
