Prior to that, D\u2019Allaird served in a variety of roles over the past three years at the SEC, including senior counsel at the Division of Enforcement and counsel to Commissioner Jaime Liz\u00e1rraga.<\/p>\n<p>Among the unit\u2019s focus will be fraud committed using emerging technologies; the use of social media, the dark web, or false websites to perpetrate fraud; hacking to obtain material nonpublic information, takeovers of retail brokerage accounts, fraud involving blockchain technology and crypto assets; compliance with cybersecurity rules and regulations; and public issuer fraudulent disclosure relating to cybersecurity.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUnder Laura\u2019s leadership, this new unit will complement the work of the Crypto Task Force led by Commissioner Hester Peirce. Importantly, the new unit will also allow the SEC to deploy enforcement resources judiciously,\u201d Acting Chairman Mark Uyeda said in a statement. \u201cThe unit will not only protect investors but will also facilitate capital formation and market efficiency by clearing the way for innovation to grow. It will root out those seeking to misuse innovation to harm investors and diminish confidence in new technologies.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Uyeda\u2019s vision for the revamped unit represents a shift from the Biden administration, which launched the Crypto Assets and Cyber Unit in 2022 and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sec.gov\/newsroom\/press-releases\/2022-78\">described<\/a> its work as seeking to \u201cleverage the agency\u2019s expertise to ensure investors are protected in the crypto markets.\u201d The 50-person unit was also responsible for investigating securities law violations related to crypto asset exchanges, offerings, lending and staking products, decentralized finance platforms, non-fungible tokens and Stablecoins.<\/p>\n<p>The unit was part of a larger Biden administration effort to regulate emerging cryptocurrency markets, which they believed had become rampant with fraud and presented a destabilizing threat to financial markets.<\/p>\n<p>Between 2021 and 2024, the agency brought legal and enforcement action against 89 entities related to cryptocurrency fraud and unregistered asset offerings and platforms, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sec.gov\/securities-topics\/crypto-assets\">a list<\/a> on the SEC\u2019s website. That includes actions against Sam Bankman-Fried, the CEO of cryptocurrency derivatives exchange company FTX, who was convicted of defrauding thousands of investors out of billions of dollars. Additionally, the unit brought a lawsuit against Binance, one of the world\u2019s largest crypto asset trading firms, for securities law violations.<\/p>\n<p>President Donald Trump, however, largely embraced the cryptocurrency industry during his campaign and has installed or nominated <a href=\"https:\/\/fedscoop.com\/trump-david-sacks-as-ai-crypto-czar\/\">industry allies<\/a> in <a href=\"https:\/\/cointelegraph.com\/news\/trump-first-month-brings-change-crypto\">key positions<\/a> across government since coming into office.<\/p>\n<p>Those connections, along with the rebranding, have caused some former agency officials to worry that the SEC may be abandoning its focus on regulating and enforcing cryptocurrency-related crime.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>John Stark Reed, former chief of the SEC\u2019s Office of Internet Enforcement, commented on the changes by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/posts\/john-reed-stark-3806866_the-sec-crypto-unit-is-now-unofficially-dead-activity-7295827848198537217-p1z9?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAAAUJCy8Bnx1TqQSaNm__fDd5U5vw4eJIwg4\">saying<\/a> \u201cstick a fork in SEC crypto enforcement, it\u2019s done.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In a LinkedIn post Thursday, Reed wrote that the focus areas of the SEC\u2019s rebranded unit were a case of \u201cBack to the Future\u201d for the agency.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was about 27 years ago that the SEC created the \u2018Office of Internet Enforcement,\u2019 to do pretty much the same thing as this newly created SEC Enforcement \u2018C2,\u201d Reed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/posts\/john-reed-stark-3806866_its-official-acting-sec-chair-mark-uyeda-activity-7298360893728305152-B5nc?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAAAUJCy8Bnx1TqQSaNm__fDd5U5vw4eJIwg4\">wrote<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>But there are other reasons to doubt whether the SEC will continue robust enforcement of crypto assets. Paul Atkins, Trump\u2019s nominee for SEC chair, as well as Andrew Vollmer, former deputy general counsel and current advisor to acting SEC Chair Mark Uyeda, were among the primary authors of a chapter in Project 2025 focused on the SEC.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/static.project2025.org\/2025_MandateForLeadership_CHAPTER-27.pdf\">chapter<\/a> refers to both the SEC and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission as \u201cirresponsible actors in the digital asset area\u201d and accuses the agencies of dragging their feet on promulgating formal rules for governing digital assets like cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n<p>The authors also take a dim view of their reliance on enforcement to bring cryptocurrency actors in line with federal law.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Both agencies \u201chave chosen regulation by enforcement \u2014 and have done it poorly,\u201d the chapter continues. \u201cThey neither adequately protect investors nor provide responsible market participants with the regulatory environment that they need to thrive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Other observers say that while it\u2019s certainly possible the rebranding augurs a less forceful approach around cryptocurrency enforcement by the SEC, that\u2019s not a given.<\/p>\n<p>The description for the new unit still lists \u201cfraud involving blockchain technology and crypto assets\u201d among its areas of focus. Michael Daniel, former White House cyber coordinator under the Obama administration, told CyberScoop that the name change could be a way for the unit to distance itself from its Biden-era roots while still maintaining much of its original core focus.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPutting on my Washington hat and having gone through transitions, the fact that you remove \u2018crypto\u2019 from the name, might help lower the probability of it being targeted by the White House\u2019s ire,\u201d Daniel said. \u201cThat doesn\u2019t mean it won\u2019t do crypto investigations necessarily.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Daniel also said that expanding the unit\u2019s mission to monitor emerging technologies like artificial intelligence and quantum computing makes sense, regardless of how the administration enforces cryptocurrency-related crimes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s not completely ridiculous to me to imagine that the SEC is saying that, \u201cwe have to look beyond just crypto and fintech, and really think about how a whole suite of emerging technologies is affecting the securities markets and protecting investors,\u2019\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p><\/body> <\/p>\n<footer class=\"single-article__footer\" readability=\"3.4884547069272\">\n<div class=\"author-card\" readability=\"13\">\n<div class=\"author-card__avatar\">\n<figure class=\"author-card__image-wrap\"> <img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"author-card__image\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ddi.mohflo.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/sec-rebrands-cryptocurrency-unit-to-focus-on-emerging-technologies-1.jpg?w=640&ssl=1\" alt=\"Derek B.
