US regulators have stepped up enforcement actions against cryptocurrency companies, securing nearly $32 billion in settlements from top industry players. These regulatory efforts have increased after the high-profile collapse of crypto exchange FTX, showing the government’s growing scrutiny of the digital asset market.
Over half of the settlements were secured in the past two years. This shows a concerted effort to address possible violations, improve consumer protections, and reduce risks to financial stability.
