TRUMP’S SEC IS SLASHING AUDIT INSPECTIONS -- AND THE MARKET IS TAKING NOTICE
Under the Trump-appointed SEC, crypto firms are now expecting fewer audit inspections and lighter enforcement, with about 60% of crypto enforcement cases dropped or paused since early 2025.
This shift isn’t accidental, the new leadership has signaled a fundamentally different regulatory approach than what we saw under the previous administration, favoring revision and rationalization over aggressive litigation.
For crypto, that means: 🧑⚖️ Less aggressive audit scrutiny 📉 Fewer enforcement actions 🪙 A clearer path for innovation and compliance 🌍 Stronger signals that the U.S. wants to be the crypto capital of the world (not its regulator graveyard)
Regulatory certainty is one of the biggest barriers to institutional capital. This trend says that barrier is shrinking
