[US SEC Enforcement Actions Drop 23.7% in Fiscal Year 2026, Crypto Cases in Focus] According to Cointelegraph, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filed 348 enforcement actions in fiscal year 2026, a 23.7% decrease from 456 in the previous fiscal year, the lowest number since 1991. Enforcement results for the year included cases involving alleged crypto fraud and a failed audit of FTX. The SEC stated it has charged three alleged crypto trading platforms and four investment clubs with involvement in a scheme to defraud investors of at least $14 million; in another case, the founder of a Bitcoin mining company is accused of misappropriating $48.5 million, after the company had previously raised over $95.6 million from approximately 6,400 investors. In April, the SEC reached a settlement with Francis Decker, a partner at Prager Metis, which audited FTX, regarding its failure to meet professional auditing standards.
