The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) won its lawsuit against Hydrogen Technology Corp, raising $2.8 million in revenue.
The SEC, known for suing various companies in the crypto industry, has filed a lawsuit against Hydrogen Technology Corp. In September of last year, the SEC filed a lawsuit against the company’s former CEO, Micheal Ross Kane, alleging that Kane used Hydrogen’s market maker Moonwalkers Trading Limited to manipulate the volume and price of the ERC-20 token Hydro (HYDRO). and sued Kane. “Price manipulation in assets” was cited as the main element of the lawsuit. The lawsuit against the company and Kane for manipulation planning was won by the SEC and settled.
