"How that [manipulation] issue gets addressed, I don't have a particular path. But it needs to be addressed" before an ETF gets approved, said Jay Clayton, chairman of the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Messari, the cryptocurrency version of the EDGAR database maintained by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), launches an information register for tokens issuing projects in order to collect information that would otherwise be difficult to find.
The registry, announced on Tuesday at a Consensus: Invest event, will collect information in one place that rarely becomes public knowledge, including the structure of tokens, data on coin issues, official communication channels, management of funds raised, and information about project team members.
The target group Crypto-Sweep was formed in April 2018 on the recommendation of the North American Association of Securities Administrators (NASAA). Only in the last month, it received 70 requests for the investigation of fraudulent crypto-currencies and ICO in 40 states of the United States and Canada.
The Securities and Exchange Commission of the United States (SEC) began to verify the legitimacy of the activities of crypto-exchange companies. Dozens of companies operating on the cryptocurrency market received agendas and requests for the provision of financial information, which will be analyzed and evaluated by the regulator. The commission's concern is caused by the almost unregulated scope of ICO projects, as well as some ways of attracting investments. In particular, this is the organization and conduct of ICO by companies whose activities do not fall under the normative acts governing the conduct of traditional public events.
Many have heard of people building their homes and getting rich, or have lost their savings when investing in cryptocurrencies. Naturally, this attracted the attention of regulators, including the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), whose chairman expressed his point of view on the situation. Jay Clayton (SEC Chairman) shared his thoughts on the cryptocurrencies and ICO, which are squeezed to five main points.
The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued a statement that calls public support for various ICO celebrities of all kinds "potentially illegal" and warns that "stars" who thus advertise tokens may be held responsible for violating federal securities laws. In a joint statement issued by the SEC's special unit dealing with violations in the ICO and the SEC Office for Supervision and Verification, it is written that public support for celebrity ICO potentially violates the rules for securities regulation, since they do not properly disclose the source and amount of compensation paid for an advertising campaign.
