Former SEC Chief Talks Dismantling of Crypto Enforcement: ‘C’est La Vie and to the Moon’

John Reed Stark, the former Chief of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Office of Internet Enforcement, has delved into the organization’s future actions over the crypto industry. Reed Stark, a known detractor of the cryptocurrency ecosystem, expects the organization to pause or drop litigation in most crypto-linked cases.

Reed Stark claims the recent pause in the case that faces the organization and Binance, one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges, is just the beginning in a similar chain of actions evidencing the change of stance of the organization regarding crypto under President Donald Trump’s administration.

The action, which he qualified as ‘unprecedented’ in the history of the agency, proposed a brief stay as the agency’s newly formed crypto task force outlines a new framework for cryptocurrency assets.

Reed Stark vaticinates that many changes in this same direction will follow, including dropping, slowing, or halting all crypto-related investigations, litigation, or appeals, resolving them in favor of the companies or individuals involved.

Nonetheless, he ascertained that this was part of a mandate given by the U.S. voters to President Donald Trump, whom he called the first “Bitcoin President.”

He declared:

So too bad that the SEC will be shutting down its crypto enforcement efforts forthwith, but c’est la vie and to the Moon (I guess).

Reed believes that these actions, while justified given their context, will endanger and put investors in peril as the guardrails designed to protect them get disarmed. “The crypto-contagion will spread like a plague and infect all aspects of global securities markets — including those who have nothing to do with, and want nothing to do with digital assets,” he concluded.
