Social messaging app Kik and the Securities and Exchange Commission have proposed settling a dispute over a 2017 token sale with a $5 million fine, according to court documents.
Before the two parties can move forward with the settlement, it needs to be approved by federal district Judge Alvin K. Hellerstein which would end the year-long court proceedings.
