Grewal, the head of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Enforcement Division, discussed cryptocurrency regulation at a recent symposium hosted by the William & Mary Law Review at the College of William & Mary School of Business.

Howey, which defined securities, still apply to new investment schemes, including crypto assets. Grewal pointed out the significant investor losses caused by fraudulent crypto activities and stressed the urgent need to address these harms. He mentioned numerous charges brought against issuers involved in unregistered and deceptive offerings.
