CoinVoice has learned that, according to The Block, former litigation advisor to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and partner at BakerHostetler, Teresa Goody Guillén, stated that the number of cases filed by the SEC against cryptocurrency companies is expected to decrease in the new year. In the future, the SEC will only be able to file lawsuits in cases involving securities.

Therefore, if the lawsuits do not involve securities, the agency will refer these malefactors to the Department of Justice and other regulatory agencies, such as the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission. [Original link]
