US Attorney’s Office Will Pursue Fewer Crypto Cases
The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Manhattan reportedly will pursue fewer cases related to cryptocurrency.
Scott Hartman, co-chief of the securities and commodities task force at the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York, said Friday (Nov. 15) that the office has fewer prosecutors working on crypto cases than it did during the crypto winter, Reuters reported Friday.
“We brought a lot of big cases in the wake of the crypto winter — there were a lot of important fraud cases to bring there — but we know our regulatory partners are very active in this space,” Hartman said at a conference hosted by the Practicing Law Institute in New York, according to the report.
