The agency reported filing 760 enforcement actions in FY 2022, up 9% from the previous year, with 462 of those being completely new cases, up 6.5% annually.
The agency does not break down how many enforcement actions or settlements from the fiscal year that ended on September 30, 2022 were related to cryptocurrencies in its annual summary of enforcement statistics released today, but it does highlight a number of such actions or settlements from that time frame.
The SEC also bragged about expanding its cryptocurrency branch by 20 additional posts, creating a team dedicated to the digital asset sector.
The SEC’s strategy has received harsh criticism from leaders in the cryptocurrency business and supporters. This includes current doubts about the agency’s treatment of FTX and earlier this year’s discussions between FTX management and the SEC.
When asked last week why the SEC hadn’t yet taken action against FTX, which had an American company but conducted most of its business overseas, Chair Gary Gensler replied, “Building the evidence, building the facts, typically takes time.”
