Richard Heart says he has "defeated the SEC completely" after the U.S. regulator abandoned its fraud lawsuit against him.
The crypto entrepreneur—who founded HEX, PulseChain and PulseX—had been accused of selling unregistered securities and misleading investors.
On Friday, a federal judge dismissed the Securities and Exchange Commission's lawsuit against crypto entrepreneur Richard Heart, ruling the agency failed to establish personal jurisdiction over the Finland-based U.S. citizen. District Judge Carol Bagley Amon found the SEC didn't demonstrate Heart had sufficient contacts with the U.S. related to his crypto projects Hex, PulseChain, and PulseX. The court rejected the SEC's argument that Heart's virtual appearances at U.S. conferences established j...
A federal judge dismissed the case in February after concluding that the SEC had failed to prove Heart's statements specifically targeted American consumers.
The regulator was given until April 21 to file an amended complaint, but has since confirmed that it intends to abandon the case altogether.
In a tweet, Heart claimed that he and his projects "have achieved regulatory clarity that nearly no other coins have."
"The SEC walked away from some other cryptocurrency cases voluntarily, but this is the only case where the SEC lost and crypto won across the board, with a dismissal in court of every single claim the SEC brought," he wrote.
He went on to describe the development as a "victory for open-source software, cryptocurrency, and free speech."
In a follow-up tweet, Heart said that he “beat the SEC in court,” adding that, “The SEC did not drop its case against me. The judge completely dismissed their case for both failure to state a claim and lack of jurisdiction.”
I beat the SEC in court. The SEC did not drop its case against me. The judge completely dismissed their case for both failure to state a claim and lack of jurisdiction. This is why PulseChain, PulseX and HEX gained legal certainty that almost no other coin has, even Ethereum.… https://t.co/iz8qAdNGYC

The SEC has dropped a slew of investigations against crypto companies in recent months—reflecting Donald Trump's favorable stance toward the industry.
The U.S. SEC on Thursday dismissed enforcement actions against three major crypto firms, filing joint stipulations to drop the cases with prejudice, making the decisions final and not subject to refile. Kraken, ConsenSys, and Cumberland DRW LLC all saw their respective lawsuits terminated simultaneously, marking the latest reversal in the agency's regulatory approach toward digital assets. The regulator has also officially closed its case against the exchange Crypto.com. Disclaimer: ConsenSys is...
And earlier this week, Paul Atkins was sworn into office as the new SEC chairman. Previously an advisor to several digital asset firms, he has vowed to adopt less of a heavy-handed approach than his predecessor Gary Gensler.
In the now-abandoned lawsuit, the SEC had accused Heart of claiming that HEX was "built to be the highest appreciating asset that has ever existed in the history of man." It was also claimed he had used millions of dollars of investor cash to make lavish purchases of luxury items.
Nonetheless, Heart—whose real name is Richard Schueler—remains the subject of an Interpol red notice and appears on a list of Europe's most wanted fugitives, on charges of tax fraud and physically assaulting a teenager by grabbing their hair, knocking them to the ground and punching them up to five times in the face.
Interpol, the world’s largest international law enforcement organization, issued an arrest request for Hex cryptocurrency founder Richard Schueler over tax fraud and assault accusations. Interpol issued its red notice for Schueler, better known in crypto circles as Richard Heart, as a “request to law enforcement worldwide to locate and provisionally arrest a person pending extradition, surrender, or similar legal action.” Still, it is just a request, with the organization explaining that “a red...
According to CoinGecko data, HEX has risen by 12.7% over the past 24 hours—extending to gains of 49% since this time last week.
Eric Trump, the son of President Donald Trump, said that it was “woke cancel culture” coming after his family that led him to embrace crypto—with the Trumps making many moves in the space in recent months. The Trump Organization's executive vice president claimed that the “some of the biggest banks in the world” canceled his accounts with them—as well as accounts for other family members—at the tail end of President Trump’s first term. He believes this happened as a result of the “woke cancel cu...
Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, reported a decline of $16.49 per common share in the first quarter of 2025—a result of Bitcoin’s price plunge during the span, the leading Bitcoin treasury firm announced Thursday after equity markets closed. The Tysons Corner, Virginia-based company recorded a loss of $5.9 billion on its Bitcoin holdings for the period. Strategy said that it would issue a new $21 billion common stock equity offering, with co-founder and Executive Chairman Michael Saylo...
Investment firm dao5 has raised $222 million to close out its second fund, with an aim to nurture institutional interest in cryptocurrencies. The multi-strategy investment vehicle brings dao5's total assets under management to roughly $550 million, according to the firm's announcement on Thursday. “Crypto is entering its adolescence phase,” dao5 founder and general partner Tekin Salimi said Thursday in a statement. “The industry’s dependency on pure speculation as the driver of growth is no long...
